"Der Reisende (The Traveller)" by Jens Sundhelmd and Berhard Reuss, scan from the transmediale.08 booklet

‘The Traveller' tries to re-define travelling and its documentation in the age of internet: Travel destinations and itineraries are set by webcam locations, which the traveller visits on the assumption that they are attractions, something worth seeing. After arrival, caught by the camera, he starts a second, virtual journey: fragmented into pixels, he travels as data stream through space and time.
