''Some thoughts and ideas on satellite transmission''

==How can I send via Satellite==
At HMKV Dortmund in the Workshop [[Satellite Border Footprint|Satellite/Border/Footprint]] the question came up if it would be possible to send directly to a satellite. During the workshop a lot of art projects were shown, that work with received satellite data. The shown projects update the already existing Artist Working With Satellites List by [[Max Neupert]]. [[Satellite Border Footprint/Lisa Parks|Lisa Parks]] showed satellite TV enthusiasts covering their whole house with sat dishes to receive a broad range of signals. She showed as well improvised, hand crafted dishes made of metal pots. So there are ways to receive.
But is it possible to send information directly via satellite in the context of an artistic project or open technology? Of course it is but realization depends on laws and at least on the budget. So what can one do? Collect information and calculate.....

==Transmission ==

*Antennas, Receivers, Transmitters, Transponders and Encryption - technological basics

*Transmitting/Receiving

Sharing information via electro magnetic fields is a highly protected form of communication. A small number of frequencies can be received for several applications in everyday life e.g Radio(UHF), TV(UHF/Satellite), Internet 2.4 GHz. surveillance cameras 2.4 GHz, GPS,... Its allowed to send in some of those frequencies, like in the 2.4 Ghz frequency used for WiFi internet and other civil transmission. Most other Frequencies are forbidden for public use. Radio Amateurs or Ham Radio Amateurs have the right to use some. To become a Radio Amateur one has to pass a quite complex test on technology and laws of radio communication. Unlike the untested public radio user Ham Radio Amateurs are allowed to send on the frequencies they are receiving. The Ham Radio community is a world wide network based on private equipment reaching from very low level to highly advanced technology. Most of the Radio Amateurs search for signals coming from a far out place. The aim of transmission is as well to reach a far away receiver. If another amateur is found both exchange their radio amateur name via voice, talk a bit and log the contact. After a contact, most of Ham Radio Amateurs send each other postcards. Nowadays the internet is integrated in the For special events Radio Amateurs search in cars with mobile systems for hidden transmitters. The Ham Radio communication structure is supported by several states in form of special activities e.g. satellite launches cause Radio Amateurs could act as a back up communication network in case of emergency or war.

Some recordings of the transmissions were recorded and uploaded to YouTube:

B2kn: /* Dish Geometry & Channel Surfing */

{{Template:User|B2kn}}

[http://bogotissimo.com/b2kn site], [http://vimeo.com/b2kn vimeo]

''Below, some very subjective afterthoughts about the workshop, which could lead to long-term developments or other projects.''

== Dish Geometry & Channel Surfing ==

[http://www.vjtheory.net/web_texts/text_menotti.htm Once], I've been interested in how the (historically defined) architecture of the movie theatre plays a huge role in creating a regime of experience that is considered intrinsic to the cinematographic medium. A similar inquiry was aroused by the formal simplicity of the satellite dish, whose [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Parabolic_antenna_types.png pure geometry] is greatly responsible for the proper organization of video signal. I was curious to see how the intervention in the physical shape of the dish affected the audiovisual reception. I thought that this could lead to techniques for the meaningful modulation of the signal using the antenna itself.

This curiosity led me to participate of the [[Satellite Border Footprint/Home is Where you get a Signal|drawing session]] with the [[Satellite Border Footprint/Büro für Unabwägbarkeiten|Büro für Unabwägbarkeiten]]. It proved to be a wonderful opportunity to imagine how the dish (and its [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feedhorn feedhorn]) could be employed either as a tool or as an occupiable construction. Most of the situations I came up with allowed the public to manipulate the dish according to certain physical parameters and constantly monitor the visual results of such interactions. In that sense, they were playful, pedagogic pieces, which promoted a general awareness of infrastructural aspects of media.

However, once the satellite dish is disconnected from its normal architectural situation, there is nothing preventing it of becoming an instrument for performance. Thus, I feel that some of the pieces also suggested a sort of ''poetics of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Channel_surfing channel surfing]''. With this term, I’m implying all forms of manipulation of a reception device in search of particular signals. Primary examples of channel surfing would be scanning radio frequencies after a station; zapping through TV channels with a remote control; and even adjusting an antenna on the roof to increase the quality of the image. Of course, the list could be expanded to include more spatial forms of signal rummage, from centuries old [http://www.britishdowsers.org/learning/what_is_dowsing.shtml dowsing] to modern techniques such as [http://www.gearbox.mediashed.org/?section=tutorials&action=view&id=120 CCTV sniffing] (and, why not, the auditing of electromagnetic fields of the [[Satellite Border Footprint/SnowKrash|SnowKrash]] duo and the research-performances of the Büro).

On the one hand, a poetics of channel surfing would turn all available [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free-to-air free-to-air signals] in an infinite source for image making. Collaterally, it would create opportunities to reveal the spaces in-between structured channels, foregrounding the natural patterns – often called ''noise'' – that video devices try to suppress with their muting circuits.

== Pingback (the echo as a measure of existence) ==
This reflection came to me when I was talking to [[Satellite Border Footprint/Lena Brüggemann|Lena]] and [[Satellite Border Footprint/Tatjana Vukelic|Tatjana]] over breakfast, and I hope it can be turned into a proper essay or a small exhibition. I think we were discussing different forms of amateur radio. Lena explained that, once radio enthusiasts catch a transmission from a distant station (say, from another continent), they often send a postcard back to it, acknowledging date, time and place of reception.

Being a postcard enthusiast myself, I was amazed by this very extravagant way of saying roger. Later on the day, it led me to think about how different systems of communication (in that case, radio transmission and snail mail) supplement each other in a media circuit. This interaction of different systems was also crucial for Galloway and Rabinowitz’s ''Hole-in-Space''. As [[Satellite Border Footprint/Lisa Parks|Lisa]] reports [http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/10509200500486288 on her paper], even thought it was live satellite transmission that created the sheer possibility of a transnational video window, the public occupation of this structure was caused by very traditional word of mouth.

These “multimedia” crossovers seem to partake of the same ontological dynamics essential to any process of mediation. As an object, the existence of a satellite is self-evident in its physical structure. However, even if the satellite can be seen through a telescope, it does not mean it is working. The presence of the satellite as a mediatic object – a transmitter of video signals – is entirely relational. In as much as it can be inferred by calculus, satellite transmission can only be truly confirmed by another mediatic object, such as a television monitor. Thus, a mediatic entity is defined less by its own structure than by the responses it provokes in other ones.

This takes us back to the foreign radio stations, whose presence can be felt in other territories in spite of their physical limits (a fact that can be used to circumvent political boundaries and regulations). In that sense, the postcards sent by listeners are a sort of second-order response, an echo that makes the station aware of its own existence (its “footprint”) abroad.

As a measure of existence, these responses highlight the kinship between media and radar technologies. They also seem to have a kind of institutional value, legitimizing the station as a communication hub (like when broadcast ratings are used as an indicative of the importance of a given channel). One can think of different strategies used to stimulate them; examples that come to mind are 1) promotions used by magazines to disguise audience research; and 2) the reward offered in return of the boxes “from heaven” mentioned by [[Satellite Border Footprint/Anselm Bauer|Anselm]].

Considering these responses as part of the phatic dimensions of language, concerned with testing the channels and making them available for communication, it could be interesting to investigate their pure aesthetic qualities – from the lingo of [http://heine.nusa.co.za/Library/Radio/Radio%20Voice%20Procedures.htm radio voice procedures] to Francis Alÿs’ piece [http://delmuseoimaginario.blogspot.com/2009/02/francis-alys-fabiola.html Seven Lives of Garbage].

This curiosity led me to participate of the [http://web.uni-weimar.de/medien/wiki/Satellite_Border_Footprint/Home_is_Where_you_get_a_Signal drawing session] with the [http://web.uni-weimar.de/medien/wiki/Satellite_Border_Footprint/B%C3%BCro_f%C3%BCr_Unabw%C3%A4gbarkeiten Büro für Unabwägbarkeiten]. It proved to be a wonderful opportunity to imagine how the dish (and its [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feedhorn feedhorn]) could be employed either as a tool or as an occupiable construction. Most of the situations I came up with allowed the public to manipulate the dish according to certain physical parameters and constantly monitor the visual results of such interactions. In that sense, they were playful, pedagogic pieces, which promoted a general awareness of infrastructural aspects of media.

However, once the satellite dish is disconnected from its normal architectural situation, there is nothing preventing it of becoming an instrument for performance. Thus, I feel that some of the pieces also suggested a sort of ''poetics of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Channel_surfing channel surfing]''. With this term, I’m implying all forms of manipulation of a reception device in search of particular signals. Primary examples of channel surfing would be scanning radio frequencies after a station; zapping through TV channels with a remote control; and even adjusting an antenna on the roof to increase the quality of the image. Of course, the list could be expanded to include more spatial forms of signal rummage, from centuries old [http://www.britishdowsers.org/learning/what_is_dowsing.shtml dowsing] to modern techniques such as [http://www.gearbox.mediashed.org/?section=tutorials&action=view&id=120 CCTV sniffing] (and, why not, the auditing of electromagnetic fields of the [http://web.uni-weimar.de/medien/wiki/Satellite_Border_Footprint/SnowKrash SnowKrash] duo and the research-performances of the Büro).

On the one hand, a poetics of channel surfing would turn all available [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free-to-air free-to-air signals] in an infinite source for image making. Collaterally, it would create opportunities to reveal the spaces in-between structured channels, foregrounding the natural patterns – often called ''noise'' – that video devices try to suppress with their placid blue screens.

== Pingback (the echo as a measure existence) ==
This reflection came to me when I was talking to [http://web.uni-weimar.de/medien/wiki/Satellite_Border_Footprint/Lena_Br%C3%BCggemann Lena] and [http://web.uni-weimar.de/medien/wiki/index.php5?title=Satellite_Border_Footprint/Tatjana_Vukelic&action=edit&redlink=1 Tatjana] over breakfast, and I hope it can be turned into a proper essay or a small exhibition. I think we were discussing different forms of amateur radio. Lena explained that, once radio enthusiasts catch a transmission from a distant station (say, from another continent), they often send a postcard back to it, acknowledging date, time and place of reception.

Being a postcard enthusiast myself, I was amazed by this very extravagant way of saying roger. Later on the day, it led me to think about how different systems of communication (in that case, radio transmission and snail mail) supplement each other in a media circuit. This interaction of different systems was also crucial for Galloway and Rabinowitz’s ''Hole-in-Space''. As [http://web.uni-weimar.de/medien/wiki/Satellite_Border_Footprint/Lisa_Parks Lisa] reports [http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/10509200500486288 on her paper], even thought it was live satellite transmission that created the sheer possibility of a transnational video window, the public occupation of this structure was caused by very traditional word of mouth.

These “multimedia” crossovers seem to partake of the same ontological dynamics essential to any process of mediation. As an object, the existence of a satellite is self-evident in its physical structure. However, even if the satellite can be seen through a telescope, it does not mean it is working. The presence of the satellite as a mediatic object – a transmitter of video signals – is entirely relational. In as much as it can be inferred by calculus, satellite transmission can only be truly confirmed by another mediatic object, such as a television monitor. Thus, a mediatic entity is defined less by its own structure than by the responses it provokes in other ones.

This takes us back to the foreign radio stations, whose presence can be felt in other territories in spite of their physical limits (a fact that can be used to circumvent political boundaries and regulations). In that sense, the postcards sent by listeners are a sort of second-order response, an echo that makes the station aware of its own existence (its “footprint”) abroad.

As a measure of existence, these responses highlight the kinship between media and radar technologies. They also seem to have a kind of institutional value, legitimizing the station as a communication hub (like when broadcast ratings are used as an indicative of the importance of a given channel). One can think of different strategies used to stimulate them; examples that come to mind are 1) promotions used by magazines to disguise audience research; and 2) the reward offered in return of the boxes “from heaven” mentioned by [http://web.uni-weimar.de/medien/wiki/Satellite_Border_Footprint/Anselm_Bauer Anselm].

Considering these responses as part of the phatic dimensions of language, concerned with testing the channels and making them available for communication, it could be interesting to investigate their pure aesthetic qualities – from the lingo of [http://heine.nusa.co.za/Library/Radio/Radio%20Voice%20Procedures.htm radio voice procedures] to Francis Alÿs’ piece [http://delmuseoimaginario.blogspot.com/2009/02/francis-alys-fabiola.html Seven Lives of Garbage].
