TIMELINE
These
installations could occur on weeks/months cycles and/or overlap. The exact
timing of the installations is flexible by nature and would need to be adjusted
to maximize artistic effect.
PHASE
1
PHASE
2 Houston GSP Installation William Manuel (Thats me); locations will be
all over the place.
PHASE

There
are actually a ton more people willing to set up installations; I just need to
ask them (which I will do).
SITES
Optimal
locations are still being pondered by participants, but will all be very
effective once determined. Locations in
any given city under control of each participant will be able to be moved as
necessary based on circumstances on the ground. (and with all due deference to General
Patraeus, naturally.)
BUDGET / EQUIPMENT NEEDS
Equipment
5
x Projectors COST: $800-1000/ea [additional projectors will be provided by
volunteers who already own necessary equipment]
5
x VGA 35 to 50 ft cables COST: $50/each
5
x Extension cords COST: $20/ea
Shipping
costs will be minimized for up to 5 project installation sites, as I will have
equipment directly shipped to project participants upon initial purchase. Any
projects installations exceeding 5 will then require shipment of equipment to
newer locations and should cost around $50 per shipment.
Total:
$5350
Services
5
x Applet board fee for time of projection COST: $20/mo per applet board
application/instance example, if we want to create multiple drawboards
functioning simultaneously but separately, this would require additional
accounts with the commercial server (www.groupboard.com)
at $20/mo each.
Total
for 2 months: $40 to $200
Human/Administrative
Costs
Not
needed.
TOTAL
COST: $5390 to $5550*
*Additional
funds have been offered from a private, new media arts advocate to match any
grant amount from Rhizome not exceeding $3k.
Projector operators (friends, peers, colleagues) who have committed to
do this are each donating spare laptops on which to run this program. Thus, no
additional computer hardware besides projectors and cables will be needed. I
can pay for any cost run-over my own hard-earned money up to but not to exceed
thirty-two million dollars.
