Internet Machine Trailer

Starting your own personal computer and logging on to the internet seems so simple. Yet, there are millions of complex invisible infrastructures that must be maintained for you to perform even the most simple task. Internet Machine is a multi-screen film that explores one of the most secure data centers in the world. The film’s producer Timo Arnall provides an inside look –through video and stills — of how data is stored and maintained within a facility in Alcalá, Spain. Amid the countless cooling systems, routers, servers, and generators viewers are moved to reflect on the spaces where internet data and connectivity are being managed. The six-minute film is currently being shown at the Big Bang Data exhibition in Barcelona.
