SIGN ON FOR ONLINE TRADING IN DIGITAL COMMONS
http://www.rich-air.com
Launch date: September 1, 2002
GARLIC=RICH AIR is the second and third phase of "St(r)eaming the
Fields",
a field harvesting and public network project, conceived by Shu Lea
Cheang
with funding from the "Challenge to the Field" award of Lyn
Blumenthal
Memorial Fund for Independent Media.
In a fictional "After the crash" scenario, organic garlic is
recently ordained
as new social currency, serving as "credito" for the
global shared network in
common exchange. 10,000 garlic plants cultivated by
organic farmer Tovey Halleck
in the span of 10 years in upstate New York were harvested by
crew hands this summer.
On September 1st, we launch garlic credito trading system at
rich-air.com where items
include digital bytes, bandwidth, domains, URLs, network,
system and softwares are posted
for virtual garlic trade.
On September 27, 28, 29, a designer truck flaunting loads of
garlic and wireless technology,
will serve as mobile urban
farm stand and claim selected New York City wireless network
nodes
for online and onsite street
trading activities. Members of online credito trueque club are
invited
to exchange their
virtual garlic with edible organic garlic at the designated truck
posts.
We also invite members of the
public to participate in garlic trading with their own
offers.
