A au­dio­vi­sual live per­for­mance based on the work „Harder Drive“ of Tom Mur­phy
What is the In­ter­net and what does it look like? What do you think of when you hear “In­ter­net”?

Data high­way, In­ter­net of Things, World Wide Web, Cloud, FTP, Mo­dem, 4G, PC, Server, IP­net, Data, eMail, Browser, WIFI, In­trenet, Router, ISP, User, So­cial­Net­work, IOT, VPN, WEB2.0, LAN, PORT, Provider, DNS

The In­ter­net is a very dif­fi­cult con­cept to grasp in my opin­ion. And some­thing dif­fer­ent for every­one.
Does the In­ter­net have a shape?
The “In­ter­net Map” by Dr. Tom Mur­phy (http://​tom7.​org/​harder/), which shows “all” IP ad­dresses of the World­WideWeb has im­pressed me very much, be­cause it seems to vi­su­al­ize the In­ter­net di­rectly.
At first glance, the map looks like a lot of noise. Dirt that be­comes im­pres­sive pat­terns when you look closer and zoom in. Some sec­tions have the tex­ture of fields or cities from the Salite per­spec­tive, oth­ers are rem­i­nis­cent of Ttris stones.
Every­thing fol­lows a pro­found logic, which makes scrolling around the map and search­ing for pat­terns all the more fas­ci­nat­ing.
The per­for­mance mu­si­cally un­der­pins this fas­ci­na­tion, show­ing in­ter­est­ing struc­tures and pat­terns.
