every computer in the internet has a so - called "ip- adress". this is, so to say, the equivalent to a physical adress in the real world. but: in the real world the neighbour of e.g. a head of state won't be an anarchist. in cyberspace this is possible. this machine lets you find out something about cyber- neighbourhoods.

Mailing lists are popular tools for the exchange of thoughts and opinions: they make multiple (written) dialogues possible as well as the archiving for future references. In this work the mailinglist-software “mailman” is modified to allow only one single posting from a sender. The user is able to subscribe and to receive messages endlessly but post only once and by this immediately get unsubscribed. The idea of “exchange” is thereby turned into something absurd: one can listen but only talk once. Sending a message thus requires meaningful content, “chatting” becomes impossible.
