Online trading launch date: September 1, 2002
GARLIC=RICH AIR is the second and third phase of "St(r)eaming the Fields",
a field harvesting and public network project, conceived by Shu Lea Cheang
with funding from the "Challenge to the Field" award of Lyn Blumenthal
Memorial Fund for Independent Media.
In a fictional "After the crash" scenario, organic garlic is recently
ordained
as new social currency, serving as "credito" for the global shared network
in
common exchange. 10,000 garlic plants cultivated by organic farmer
Tovey Halleck
in the span of 10 years in upstate New York were harvested by crew
hands this summer.
On September 1st, we launch garlic credito trading system at
rich-air.com where items
include digital bytes, bandwidth, domains, URLs, network, system
and softwares are posted
for virtual garlic trade.
On September 27, 28, 29, a designer truck flaunting loads of garlic
and wireless technology,
will serve as mobile urban farm stand and claim selected New York
City wireless network nodes
for online and onsite street trading activities. Members of online
credito trueque club are invited
to exchange their virtual garlic with edible organic garlic at the
designated truck posts.
We also invite members of the public to participate in garlic trading
with their own offers.
