electromagnetic field blocking fabric, wooden armature, Wi-Fi radio antenna, Raspberry Pi, custom code

Exhibited at sometimes, something at Stamps Gallery (Ann Arbor, MI)

A replicated version of my studio (measuring 10 x 15 x 20 ft) is positioned within the gallery. This replica is enveloped in EMF blocking fabric, shielding it from external radio signals. Inside the structure, a radio antenna consistently broadcasts the names of wireless networks captured from my studio. Upon entering the structure, visitors are prompted to open Google Maps, revealing their virtual location within my studio, despite physically being in the gallery space.
