The Bowery: The luxury of silence and care.
Visitors of the Bowery can experience the absence of the invisible. The inside of this room is a bubble of silence, where all signals of mobile phones and data services are eliminated. Arthur Elsenaar & Taconis Stolk created BuBL Space, an electronic pocket device and campaign for recreating serenity in a world of mobile communications. The soothing relaxation of real space, without the omnipresent connections to the outside world.

For those wondering why this piece is listed here, it is a side project from 2002, building on the notion of the technologically enhanced or protected personal zone. Much akin to my earliest project listed here: Body Convention.
