encyclopedia of radio waves

19 December 2007

radio_encyclopedia.jpg
a visual encyclopedia of radio waves that contains a selection of fictional radio ‘species’, such as Bluetooth, DMB, GSM, RFID, Wifi & Zigbee. the encyclopedia contains fictional visualisations of the ways in which radio waves inhabit space. each hand-drawn illustration includes a scale, & a shape, texture, direction & density, to provide readers a sense of each technology.

these "fictional radio spaces" are not intended to be technically accurate or to offer actionable information. instead they provide a playful cue to reflect & consider radio as something tangible & physical to be experienced by alternative senses, not just through a screen.
