Fantastic. In transit between Cornwall and Brussels, David Griffiths/fo.am, has come to discuss ‘The swamp that was…’ with a view to taking over the programming for the piece’s completion. The good news is that work done so far has been written in lua so all code is present within the script and can be continued from where things had got to. We neither have time to work on it before public experiment weekend so will keep located music triggering to one layer and embed navigational messages to the cyclists in the other. We agree that apart from getting the system to function reliably at best audio quality, we – I!- need to decide the optimum system for telling people where to go. NO maps on board. The cyclist needs to be able to pedal and listen and know where to go without doubt. Apart from the conundrum of the sonic maze in Ledeberg and down the back of the Muinkaai.
