RICHAIR2030 is a fictional public meshnetwork performance

A joint presentation by TAKE2030 (London) and c-base (Berlin)

RICHAIR2030 proposes a public interface and a fictional scenario with roller girls to promote the ideal of free network movement and meshnetwork development during WOS3 conference in Berlin. The roaming roller girls tap into the meshnetwork set up by a team of developers based in c-base. The roller girls take the nerds out onto the street, serving as interface between the public and community ad-hoc network.

RICHAIR2030 - BEAT UP THE SIGNALS




RICHAIR2030 – a fictional scenario for free network movement, set in Berlin2030

RICHAIR2030 incorporates ideas of freenetwork movement developed worldwide in early 21st century and proposes shared public consumption of wireless bandwidth in an " "After the Net", "After the Crash" scenario.

It is year 2030. The great wireless hope that promises mobility and connectivity has bubbled. The GPS satellite signals have lost track of its urbanites when cutting through the Ozone layers. The ocean-apart digital divide has eventually sabotaged the Net we surf in. What remains of the feeble bandwidth is held out and safeguarded by the wireless freenetworkers, whose self-organized and decentralized network maintains its data cloud in the local communal mesh-settings.

The mobile generation is grounded. The tribal gathering around freenetwork nodes is the only game in town, bringing together the signal-seeking Desparati. The self-appointed renegade roller girls, acting as the Transmitenti of free bandwidth, travel city limits in auto-powered modules. Equipped with homemade lunchbox chiputers, the roller girls pump the remaining wireless signal strength in RGB codes and sonic extravaganza for everyone's enjoyment. RICHAIR2030 mobilizes roaming nodes and calls for trans-national virtual mesh network.
