This Internet art piece explored metropolitan traffic web-presence and social media interactivity. Web technology enabled users to intervene from remote locations and insert their perspectives into the art encounter. Daily public live cam coverage and simultaneous field cast reporters via Periscope covered Miami traffic. These web cams mapped a social media syndicated multi newsroom that hosted daily live commentary and analysis. This art encounter explored live communications by way of Google browsers and apps like Twitter, Facebook and Instagram; tracking the informational flow of ground, areal and maritime traffic. Daily off-site launch of a drone broadcasted Wynwood areal status using a GoPro live cam and Meerkat.
