Fair enough. When they are playing they are sitting ‘face to face’. This particular photo is really just to create a narrative or personality around the computers as if they might move around the park. It is a photo I really like. They look somehow old and introspective. Maybe i should upload a picture where they are playing face to face.

Thanks for the feedback. We often discuss this idea of customisation and people talk about how it is more practical on a mobile device or in conjunction with a mobile device, but we approach this work from the perspective that Newsleak is a printed publication accessible in urban environments and soon as a digital publication in cyberspace.

One of the main points of this work is that people without wifi or anything close to a smart phone are able to access such information, and that the information the publication covers literally leads the reader from the real world through to cyberspace.

Also the information in the publication is very relevant to the location it is accessed. We show local news, tweets, music events and the device itself is capturing photos every 30 seconds.

It is still being formed but the thesis and format is strong – Global Space > Local Space > You > Social Cyberspace > Cyberspace

kinda interesting. but if this isn’t an art project, then wouldn’t adding some wifi besides just a simple button be even more practical? a wifi which would automatically bring to you a digest site like the news feed you currently present in paper format? this would also help you with the costs involved (ads) in implementing this system in other cities. also, this could be customized for the area the device is placed in (especially good in large cities eg. london)
anyway, keep up the good work!

When listening to the piece about this project on Spark, I envisioned the laptops facing each other at a table, and was surprised to see them sitting on a bench next to each other. Just curious about what led you to place them side by side.
