A narration on third landscape 100310.hertzian_drifting.gif The DOE(x) is a multidisciplinary project started on april 2009 in Prague. Basically the project skills explore some layers of urban context. From the concrete experience on the physical space to spectral geographies of the hertzian space. I will use the space on the library like an headquarters. Here I will show the material of my exploration along the Lea Valley. I will play EM interferences and sounds recorded along the river. I will exhibit images, sketches and notes about the exploration. The audiovisual performance is a narration using the collected materials of the city (EMF and VLF data, video, audio and GPS tracks). DOE(x).Layers and definitions. Hertzian space definition The dreams of electronic objects are made from electromagnetic radiation. These dreams radiate outwards from the object, creating a new, invisible, but physical environment that we call Hertzian space. It is here that the secret life of electronic objects is played out, secret not only because we rarely glimpse it, but also because we are only just beginning to understand it. (Anthony Dunne and Fiona Raby) Defining Liminal Space Liminal space is a place on the Threshold. This threshold is the idea of ambiguity and ambivalence. This in-between space allows active exchanges of ideologies, concepts and methods of working. Liminal indicates a transition from one state or space to another. The 'liminal space' might also be read as a metaphorical realm where ideas and concepts: artistic, political, cultural, social or otherwise, are in constant states of contestation and negotiation. These Thresholds and windows are boundaries between inside and outside, public and private; as a in a car, we experience space in motion, constantly adjusting our perspective. The Hertzian space of cities, once the territory of governmental agencies, private enterprise, and networks of ham radio operators, has evolved into a dynamic and contested site, where many competing interests are beginning to shape a new information overlay. In addition to and, indeed, beyond the established frequencies of radio waves carrying radio and television programs, police communications, and other wireless signals, today's urban data clouds are made up of "a new kind of data, collective and individual, aggregated and discrete, open and closed, constantly logging detailed patterns of behavior" (Hill 2008) This is the behavior of the street: constantly enacting new spatial relations and organizational adjacencies that are every bit as architectural as the formal articulations of bricks and mortar that constitute the traditional city. That this urban ballet of people, data, and space is predominantly non-visual should be less a detracting factor than an intellectual challenge to those invested in the design of urban space. Beneath the threshold of public vision, a new city is emerging, one requiring new methods and techniques by which we can productively engage in its design and formation. As with other aspects of the physical world, such as land, water, and air, the electromagnetic spectrum is a limited resource. A big parts of the wireless spectrum have become effectively reserved for private use, a kind of "public" space exists in the form of the industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) radio bands. Because communication devices using the ISM bands must tolerate any interference from ISM equipment, these bands are typically given over to uses intended for unlicensed operation, since these devices typically need to be tolerant of interference from other devices anyway. ISM frequencies such as the 2.4 GHz band are set aside for license-free use by systems and devices such as WiFi, Bluetooth, cordless phones, and wireless surveillance cameras, and it is within this frequency range that a number of recent projects have attempted both to probe and to shape this new public terrain. The dreams of electronic objects are made from electromagnetic radiation. These dreams radiate outwards from the object, creating a new, invisible, but physical environment that we call Hertzian space. It is here that the secret life of electronic objects is played out, secret not only because we rarely glimpse it, but also because we are only just beginning to understand it.

Alongside still image displays and invocation of St Agnes Well, expect film, poetry and music. Spring Equinox is the space within the spiral through which the momentary APPEARANCE OF BALANCE between sunlight and darkness gives way once more to the OVERT WILDNESS of growth and renewal. It is a time to be conscious that what's past is prologue, that the seasons are as transient as ourselves, and that the best - if we prove up to it - is yet to come.
