Artist Statement:
Two households, on opposite ends of town, offer to share their wireless networks. Neighbors and strangers sit in a yellow chair and enter personal networks, share music and movies, and shout across town about war and politics. Like cyber voyeurs, they enter unknown territories, grabbing and dropping files across the neighborhood and across the city.
