@jernone or a music album, where each song is streamed from a different node, and each song is designed to be listened to in the place where the broadcasting node is.

Sure, you can just listen to the whole thing in band camp or youtube or whatever, but to experience it as it is meant to heard, you have to go to the places

@jernone Some kind of game, where you can only interact with it when you’re on the WiFi lan of one of the nodes... That forces you to travel from place to place. But the nodes are not all the same, or rather you can’t do all the same thing from every node; they’re not just access points to some central game: You can only do some things or get part of the story from each one, you have to traverse them all to get everything.

@jernone I’ll check it out.

I think locally hosted content available via discrete WiFi hubs is fun weird idea. I’m sure it would all get copied and end up all in one place eventually.

What if it was story, game, or a set of stories, where the act of moving around to get the different chapters was part of and integral to the experience?

I feel like this would be so easy and cheap with pi zeroes; all you need is someone sympathetic and willing to plug them in and leave them running...

In my dream last night, while biking across the city, I found out that Transformers had been fan-rebooted as a new animation with alternate continuum. I watched a snippet on my phone and it was insanely good. But the broadcast was spatially limited and I had to keep riding around to see subsequent pieces. Soon there were hundreds of us all walking, riding bikes, and buses around town so we could watch more Transformers (for some reason you could not see it if you were driving or in a car).

I took Totoro climbing in the Enchantments this weekend:

I delete old toots. I like the idea of ephemeral social network more than one where I accumulate forever and ever.
