Touch of the network

Touch of the network can be seen as a lighthouse and also as an island in the network between things – the Internet. Objects in this network function also as baits, being open to communication from automated processes, from bots, to communication between machines that is inevitable upon entering the network. Motives of these communicative acts are mostly non-transparent and therefore unknown. Each request from a robot, a touch of the network, triggers the searchlight on surveyors tripod to orient itself and reflect back light towards the physical location where it is being targeted from over the networks.
