Tectonic plates begin accelerating beyond geological predictions, slowly puzzling the continents back together into a new supercontinent. As the Earth's crust rearranges itself, submarine communication cables resting on the ocean floor drift and stretch to their limits until they finally snap. Across the seabed, a wilderness of fiber-optic cables dance loose, unplugged, swaying with the currents like kelp forests. The internet, long imagined by some as a seamless global web, fragments into countless local networks.

Signals begin circulating through an ecology of self-built floating infrastructures: ferries, river barges, floating libraries, peer-to-peer rafts and other diy-exquisite-corpse-like vessels. Together they form a delay–tolerant–network in which books, games, software, juicy gossip, archive reports and local caches are stored, carried and relayed from node to node along neighboring waterways.

			Traveling back and forth across the IJ river by ferry, we'll temporarily become part of one of these floating networks.

			Through a series of (speculative)score-based exercises, we'll imagine together how to nourish information in a ferry network where signals flow with the tide, treating networking as a practice of the commons.

As tectonic plates came together and the continents hugged each other once again, the Earth's crust shifted drastically. Underwater communication cables drifted and snapped, and the internet as we knew it slowly fragmented.

No longer travelling through a continuous web of cables, the cloud became tidal and split into smaller, local networks. Along canals, rivers, and urban shores, ferries and community-builded floating infrastructures emerged as the new moving cloud networks.

Travelling back and forth across the IJ by ferry, we'll temporarily become part of one of these networks.

Through a series of score-based exercises, we'll download, store, carry, relay, compress, and archive, imagining under unstable network conditions where the signal flows with the tide.
