Aram Bartholl zementiert USB-Sticks im öffentlichen Raum in New York ein. Das Projekt nennt sich Dead Drops, was übersetzt Toter Briefkasten heisst – und mich ein wenig an meine Detektivspielerei als Kind erinnert ... Ein Flickr-Set zur Aktion gibts hier, mehr Infos in seinem Blog:
"Dead Drops is an anonymous, offline, peer to peer file-sharing network in public space. I am ‘injecting’ USB flash drives into walls, buildings and curbs accessable to anybody in public space. You are invited to go to these places (so far 5 in NYC) to drop or find files on a dead drop. Plug your laptop to a wall, house or pole to share your files and date. Each dead drop contains a readme.txt file explaining the project. ‘Dead Drops’ is still in progress, to be continued here and in more cities. Full documentation, movie, map and ‘How to make your own dead drop’ manual coming soon! Stay tuned." Aram Bartholll: Dead Drops(via Neatorama)
