H2O/IP

December 30th, 2002

Taking the term “streaming media” a bit too literally, artist Jonah Brucker-Cohen has created H2O/IP, a computer network which uses water as the physical layer.

I have just two (not remotely serious) observations to make. First of all, I dread to think about the sort of volume and pressure that would be required to sustain a broadband H2O/IP connection. Secondly, with this network protocol you’d better hope your system doesn’t start dropping bits on the floor.
