On the one hand, a poetics of channel surfing would turn all available [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free-to-air free-to-air signals] in an infinite source for image making.

This reflection came to me when I was talking to [http://web.uni-weimar.de/medien/wiki/Satellite_Border_Footprint/Lena_Br%C3%BCggemann Lena] and [http://web.uni-weimar.de/medien/wiki/index.php5?title=Satellite_Border_Footprint/Tatjana_Vukelic&action=edit&redlink=1 Tatjana] over breakfast, and I hope it can be turned into a proper essay or a small exhibition. I think we were discussing different forms of amateur radio. Lena explained that, once radio enthusiasts catch a transmission from a distant station (say, from another continent), they often send a postcard back to it, acknowledging date, time and place of reception. | This reflection came to me when I was talking to [http://web.uni-weimar.de/medien/wiki/Satellite_Border_Footprint/Lena_Br%C3%BCggemann Lena] and [http://web.uni-weimar.de/medien/wiki/index.php5?title=Satellite_Border_Footprint/Tatjana_Vukelic&action=edit&redlink=1 Tatjana] over breakfast, and I hope it can be turned into a proper essay or a small exhibition.
