A new public wireless interface: Hivenetworks successfully launch 'Street Radio' in Southampton | The Next Layer

Hidden Histories utilises the latest in wireless communication technologies such as WIFI and Bluetooth in combination with FM radio to create listening stations where particular stories and themes can be heard.

By broadcasting audio files using very weak radio transmitters with a range of about 10 meters a selection of stories from Southampton City Council’s Oral History Archive can be heard along 10 nodal points (locations) from where byte-sized stories are transmitted. These nodes link together to form a media rich walk that transports people through the changing life of the
city. In the not too distant future we hope to supplement the audio clips with images and film clips via Bluetooth direct to your mobile phone.

  • Un nuevo prototipo en forma de braga para el cuello proveída de sensores que detectan las señales cerebrales que se envían a las cuerdas vocales, logra que un ordenador las sintetice en voz aún cuando no pronunciamos palabra alguna con nuestros labios. - locative on 2008-03-22

  • The system utilises wireless communication technologies such as WIFI and Bluetooth in combination with FM radio to create captive ‘puddles’ -- specific places where particular stories and themes can be heard. By 'narrowcasting' audio files (broadcasting using very weak radio transmitters with a range of about 10 meters) a selection of stories from the OHU can be heard along 10 nodal points from where byte-sized stories are transmitted

))) URBANtells (((

  • "The
    underlying concern of the collective is to use the various forms
    of technology in ways that foster, collect and redistribute urban
    culture in or as close to real time, to classify experiences, and
    to encode and communicate them symbolically through wireless transmitted
    linear and non-linear narratives"     - locative on 2007-10-23

  • Esta es una de las piezas de locative media más interesantes que he visto últimamente. Noah propone una situación intermedia entre soportar continuadamente el ruidoso entorno urbano o aislarte de la realidad que te circunda mediante un mp3. Ambient Addition convierte el entorno sonoro que te rodea en un sugerente ambiente musical. Tal vez podría criticársele que transformar realidades naturalmente desagradables en algo atractivo no debería ser considerado como una acción socialmente positiva pero, teniendo en cuenta que apenas nos despegamos del violento entorno urbano de las grandes ciudades, personalmente me encantaría poder disfrutar de este walkman de vez en cuando.

  • Ambient Addition is a Walkman with binaural microphones. A tiny Digital Signal Processing (DSP) chip analyzes the microphone's sound and superimposes a layer of harmony and rhythm on top of the listener's world. In the new context, some surprising behaviors take place. Listeners tend to play with objects around them, sing to themselves, and wander toward tempting sound sources. With Ambient Addition, I'm hoping to make people think twice about the sounds they initiate as well as loosen up some inhibitions.

  • Acoustic.Space.Re-search.Lab aims to re-approach collaborative audio
    communication tools,

    to broaden the meaning of "net.radio" - beyond the confusion of streaming
    media standards and

    its' technical limitations, and to set up new context for research on "data ecology"
    and

    co-experiments in the field of networked media, radio and satellite technologies

Entrevista a Janet Cardiff

  • KG: Can you describe what techniques and strategies you use in Words drawn in water to give participants a kind of out-of-body experience?
     
    JC: Sound has an innate ability to transport you out of your body, so if you give an audience various soundscapes, you can transport them through their imagination into many different places. For example, the sound of ghostly people talking around you can be startling, or the sound of horses going by can give you a sense of the past. I include simple but effective elements such as a fly buzzing your ear, passing musicians, or a helicopter flying overhead to take you out of your body into different imaginary spaces.
     
    KG: Could you comment on the play between public space and private experience embodied in Words drawn in water?
     
    JC: There is an intimate relationship between the artist and listener created by the audio walks. My thoughts are transmitted through the headset and create a very private space for the audience in the midst of a very public area. It's like being an anonymous person walking in a city. Your thoughts are your own, establishing a mix between the private and the public.
