Web Hopper @AEC
where - they are - going
An extended version of WebHopper developed for Ars Electronica Center in
Linz, Austria, WebHopper@AEC shows the Web surfing trails of AEC visitors
from the eight PC terminals on the Knowledge Net Floor (sensorium's
exhibition space from September 8 to13). Lines are drawn in eight colors,
one for each respective terminal.
Thinner lines indicate access to AEC's server (http://www.aec.at) from
around the world.
The image and sound from these monitors will be projected large-scale in
the gallery space.
Note: due to a large degree of packet
loss between Austria and Japan at present, imagery may not appear when
accessed from Japan. Macintosh users should increase application memory
(above 24M reccomended).
