streamfishing
Streamf1sh1ng: various realities, one interactive space,
constant flow of real life ideas (Fireball). Streamf1sh1ng depicts a real-life
pattern by pulling together individual fragments of reality into a virtual
image. The fragments of reality are thoughts merged into a constant stream
of words and thoughts. Making this stream of thoughts visible enables the
individual thoughts to interact which each other. This means: the virtual
image or world is revealed as an interactive reality of human being and machine
and can be used for further communication and exchange of ideas.
You are fishing in a constant stream of thoughts. Catch someone else's thought and put it in your bucket or throw your own idea into the stream and see what happens. The constant stream is supplied by means of a search-engine. Any input in this particular search-engine will show up in the stream. Try to communicate via search-engine. Concept
Streamfishing is an installation in an open public space, where people will pass through. Streamf1sh1ng is presented on a large billboard. The billboard shows a live-stream of what is going on in the world. The stream of ideas will alter the stream of people. (an exhibition version you will find here>) Events
