Description:
This is a digitally based installation. Visitors to the exhibition were invited to get connected to the Digital Warfare Network by sending a text message to a phone number displayed in a screen. All those who agreed, became connected to the installation network through their mobile phones. Their texts and numbers were saved in a database and, over the course of the exhibition, people connected to the system received sporadic text messages from each other’s numbers, which were automatically sent by Digital Warfare Network every ten minutes.
