As home to the world\u2019s largest internet exchange point, DE-CIX, Frankfurt attracts an increasing number of international data centres to the city. The user data circulating within these centres is managed by private companies and operated in inaccessible high-security buildings, far from public access.<\/p>\n

As part of the exhibition Fake Views \u2013 Eva & Franco Mattes<\/em>, the cycling tour by artist Benedikt Ackermann makes the city’s digital infrastructure and its implications visible and shows that the internet is not an abstract space. The tour leads across Frankfurt, past data centres and inconspicuous floor plates in the asphalt.<\/p>\n

The meeting point for the start of the cycling tour is at the Frankfurter Kunstverein. The tour lasts approximately 1.5 hours. It is a prerequisite to bring your own bicycle to participate. The number of participants is limited, and pre-registration via email at post(at)fkv.de<\/a> is necessary.<\/p>\n

Participation in the cycling tour is free of charge.<\/p>\n
