The Architecture of Radio – Visualizing the invisible architecture of networks

Created by Richard Vijgen, The Architecture of Radio is a site-specific iPad application that visualizes the network of networks (cell towers, WiFi routers, communication, navigation and observation satellites and their signals) by reversing the ambient nature of the infosphere; hiding the visible while revealing the invisible technological landscape we interact with through our devices.

We are completely surrounded by an invisible system of data cables and radio signals from access points, cell towers and overhead satellites. Our digital lives depend on these very physical systems for communication, observation and navigation.
