Cuckoo – Encrypted communication using public social networks

Author Filip VisnjicCategory Arduino MembersPosted on: People

Created by Berlin based designer Jochen Maria Weber, Cuckoo is a communication device that uses social network as a means of private communication. Cuckoo encrypts messages into randomly generated words, meanings and noise in order to scatter them over multiple communication networks simultaneously. Each letter of an original message gets translated into complex forms of certain length forming new sentences. Those sentences get posted to aforementioned social networks, next to randomly generated noise-sentences for distraction.
