During a performative event we develop strategies to commonize the electromagnetic field as evidence for an alternative, community-owned definition of land, air and frequencies. Antenna's and voicing on different frequencies (fm, wifi,...), signals the electromagnetic spectrum as a critical natural resource. Tune in your radio on 108FM, download a SSTV demodulator and follow the radio balloon live from the rooftop of Kunsthal Extra City. Open hardware and devices co-opted from Public Lab, a grassroots citizen projects and research group.

Part of PAN PAN PAN, a durational program to develop and implement a public performative interface for translocal radio telecommunication. While setting up securely an autonomous infrastructure and hardware, we empower ourselves by collective disembodiment, common voicing, and practices to commonize and decolonize our technologies.
