How would the internet look if all data were temporary? Internet consists of glass fibre cables that stretch across the ocean floor, creating a worldwide network. These cables ensure that, wherever you are, you will always have access to the same data. Data, whose main value is that they are saved and stored.
An Internet consists of glass tubes arranged according to these undersea cables and converts the 280 cable names into binary smoke signals. These smoke signals are puffed into the glass internet as ephemeral data. Together smoke signals create a unique ephemeral moment without any form of documentation.
