So it begins
So it begins.
We are Kata Kovács and Tom O’Doherty, and, together with Kris Slyka, our technical collaborator, we’re trying to figure out how to get a reliable signal from the LES-1, a now-defunct satellite, launched in 1965. It’s the first part of our research for a new piece, which aims to create a response to the erratic signals of the LES-1.
The work is supported by the Art + Technology Lab at LACMA, as one of the recipient projects of the Art + Technology Awards 2016.
Step 1: Build some antennae from scratch. Specifically, we’re going to start by building two different antennae, and with these, we hope to be able to get our signal and start figuring out what to do with it.
