Presentation by Nazanin Karimi during the opening program of the exhibition

Morning workshop with Heerko van der Kooij, Loes Bogers and Nigel van der Pol

Smart Spectral Sensing

In this workshop, we invite participants to unquantify the quantified body. We will reprogram the sensordata, pixels, and connectivity information provided to explore sub- and super-consicious, maybe even spectral connections between humans and non-humans. We use smart wristbands as a tool to engage the unquantifiable connections, flows and networks between us.

Bibliotecha is a framework to facilitate the local distribution of digital publications within a small community. It relies on a microcomputer running open-source software to serve books over a local wifi hotspot. Using the browser to connect to the library one can retrieve or donate texts. Bibliotecha proposes an alternative model of distribution of digital texts that allows specific communities to form and share their own collections.

16.00 - 17.30
participants should have their own Raspberry Pis B+ or later and SD card
Your own laptop so you can connect to your Raspberry Pi's
Pre-installed SD cards can be provided after the workshop for cost-price.
Read the latest edition of the manual here https://manual.bibliotecha.info/#prerequisites
Familiarity with the command-line / Raspberry Pis would be good - if you want to dig into it, but totally optional
Interest in digital libraries, offline libraries, suffering the joy of technology, etc.
Participation: € 10
