thoughtsandtalks

The okno-session on sustainable networks spreads out over the totality of the xmedk-media ecologies week, from april 20 till april 25.
This workshop week at PAF, St.Erme/FR is the final touch of a month-long research into sustainable meshnetworks. It’s the cherry on the cake of a long research.

At the St.Erme/Okno studio we organise mini-workshops that cover following topics:
- setting up a mesh network with the asus-routers
- flashing the asus routers with linux (kamikaze)
- connecting arduino’s to the asus
- the choice of sensors and connecting them to the arduinos
- reading and interpreting the sensordata with python
- power the network with alternative energy:
- build a custommade windmill for the physical location
- integrate existing solarpanels
- run artistic projects on the sustainable network
