The Secure Transport of Light

2013

The Secure Transport of Light was the title of a talk and workshop given at the Milan Design Fair 2013, on the subject of fiber optic networks and the politics of light.

To accompany the talk, I built a photophone, a device designed by Alexander Graham Bell for communicating on a beam of light, and an Infrared signalling device, visible only through the lens of digital cameras.

A full report of the talk, and the devices, can be read at booktwo.org.
