World's Smallest Server (2002) - Garnet Hertz
Constructing "World's Smallest Server" (2002) - Garnet Hertz -- Video, Duration 14:32.
This project was video documentation of taking Fredric White's webACE project and rebuilding the system with surface mount components without a circuit board - or "point-to-point" - for a webserver about the size of a match head. Construction was done with cyanoacrylate gel and conductive epoxy. This process had been done previously for Fly with Implanted Webserver in 2001, but never recorded. This video was produced with the support of Neutral Ground Gallery & Artist Run Centre in 2002.
