Loitering
A proposal to observe and engage with the city in its shifting technological and social contexts, by spending time in public and semi-private spaces, finding ways to execute digital and performative scripts, encountering inhabitants and other forms of life, interacting with ubiquitous computing in the wild.
The proposal then is to find appropriate spots to loiter in and around Rotterdam, spend some time in company of its networks and its inhabitants, and find suitable ways to develop, execute and alter scripts for the public space.
This coming three months will then be dedicated to explore together the possibilities to compute and publish while being outdoors.
How subjective our experience of the space can be…
Words that could transmit a unique perspective of a given person on a particular space. —-> They act as a guide through the space.
Lens you put on and your perspective of the space changes, to step outside of ourselves and experience the city from a different perspective
