Immaterials: Light painting WiFi from Timo on Vimeo.

This project explores the invisible terrain of WiFi networks in urban spaces by light painting signal strength in long-exposure photographs. A four-metre long measuring rod with 80 points of light reveals cross-sections through WiFi networks using a photographic technique called light-painting.

Catch Creative Green Tools Canada director Devon Hardy at this year's Pop Symposium for Planes, Trains, and Tourvans: Live Music’s Travel Environmental Impact! Co-hosted by Music Declares Emergency, this panel brings together festival organizers and artists to explore live music’s impact on the environment and steps we can take towards a climate-neutral sector. How do you envision the future? What aspects of that world are already here? Boasting a cast of characters that includes stage managers, actors, drag queens, oysters, and polar bears, The Future Within Us invites us to reflect on the futures we each carry and how these imaginings might translate into a collective vision of a better world. Demain, rejoignez-nous pour Bonnes pratiques en arts de la scène!
