Codex Kodanski - Rotterdam - Holland - 26 September 2004
Sunday afternoon
26 September 2004
historical museum Het Schielandshuis in Rotterdam
started the event Codex Kodanski.
Codex Kodanski is a
multimedia experience
through the centre of Rotterdam.
After I was
received with some glasses of Absinth
I got a black vest over my raincoat
and headphones in my ears.
In my hand you see
a PDA
connected by Bluetooth to a GPS receiver (on my shoulder)
and connected by GPRS to the Kodanski-server.
Codex Kodanski is a
kind of city tour through Rotterdam.
Because of the GPS the PDA knows where you are
and by GPRS it gives the information and lots of other fun stuff
about the streets and buildings where you are walking.
It's big fun!
Unfortunately you
only could experience
Codex Kodanski until 21 November 2004.
The photo was made
on the corner
of Blaak (left) and Schiedamsedijk (right)
with the Maritiem Museum left on the background.
I made a report about it
for the morning news program of 27 September.
