| dc.description.abstract | UMBRELLA.net is an experimental platform for
developing ad-hoc networks based around coincidence or
chance occurrences. The project utilizes the haphazard and
unpredictable patterns of weather and crowd formation as a
catalyst for network formation. This approach is meant to
challenge traditional conceptions of how networks form
and function by correlating their existence to circumstances
beyond people?s direct control. The system consists of a set
of umbrellas as nodes that can spontaneously form based
on weather conditions. UMBRELLA.net establishes a
visual footprint of a network in public space and creates a
framework for sharing localized information among
connected nodes. | en |
