WiFi.Bedouin is a new art-technology project we just found out about today. The concept was designed by a student during their Residency at Eyebeam Atelier in NYC during the Fall and Winter of 2003. It basically allows you to roam around with the backpack and surf the web, post to your weblog, check email, etc -- All while remaining fashionable. "The WiFi.Bedouin consists of a small backpack containing an adapted 802.11b access point, RF amplifier, custom power supply and a PowerBook G4 running custom software, MovableType Blog software, a custom chat application, Apache 2.0, the Tomcat Java Servlet Container, and WiJacker - a custom built application that translates arbitrary named URLs to local services. A PocketPC PDA - the iPAQ 2200 - is mounted to the front of the WiFi.Bedouin pack, and is configured with its own 802.11 card. The PDA is used as a visual display for a custom GPS mapping application (mStory), for node WiFi activity, and for simple configuration."
