Τι είναι το Binary Talk; At the beginning of the 20th century, people simply communicated with each other over the airwaves. As the century closed, ideas for new transmissions began to emerge. Below you will see an unusual approach to visualizing the wireless world: Communication from one computer σε έναν άλλο χρησιμοποιώντας ringa of smoke.
Binary Talk was created by Niklas Isselburg and Jakob Kilian, students at the Köln International School of Design. The idea is simple. They type a phrase and o computer converts it to binary code. A loudspeaker sends it message through a cloud of mist, making each “1” like a ring. The rings can "fly" a few meters, and hit the laser catcher, which is on the second computer. In this way the smoke rings are translated into the original text.
By making transmissions visible, Isselburg and Kilian hope to demonstrate the "apparent immateriality and infallibility of computer language." More simply, Binary Talk was created to remind us of the huge counterchange δεδομένων που συμβαίνει ανάμεσά μας κάθε μέρα. Αν θα μπορούσαμε να δούμε στους δρόμους τις σωληνώσεις και γραμμές ηλεκτρικού ρεύματος και επικοινωνίας που μας συνδέουν θα μπορούσαμε να να δούμε τι είδους κόσμου χτίσαμε. Τις υποδομές φαντάσματα σήμερα είναι πολύ δύσκολο να τις διακρίνουμε.
