Hey Babe! is a publication of XPUB1 as part of the Special Issue 21. It consists of excerpts from the + conversations at the Houweling Telecom Museum, parts from the documentary The Phantom of the Operator + and a collective reading experience on binary systems, time, worms and pebbles. + + This publication aims to act as a familiar sound over the phone and requires a caller to be heard. + Unless anyone calls, our memories about the last couple of months will be phantomized. + This is our ode to the invisible labor of operators, long distance relationships, + people who could not hear from their lovers for years, trembling voices over the phone + and all the people who took an effort and spend time to reach someone. This is the sound + of your friend saying “hello” on the phone. + + The pubication consists of many sound clips. The caller will listen to a random clip each time they call.
+This is the gesture glossary. Click a word to see the gestures related to it. + The aim is to see if a gesture glossary works and how it will work best. + Also to see what kind of different interpretations there will be on gestures of our memory. + To test the gesture glossary idea, and see what different meanings appear + or already exist in the current vocabulary. Putting next to each other + different agreements on linguistic and body units, testing what makes sense. + Investigating and playing with communicational channels in between us, + how a body language is documented, how it expands, how it is capable of creating + or enhancing identities. To be an xpub means to speak/perform the xpub language?
-Overlap -We have a bag full of planets, stars, our favorite moments, darkest fears, best intentions and worst -feelings. We contain them and sometimes they overlap each other. Sometimes we are happy and sad; -sometimes we forget why we were even mad in the beginning. But we also share some of these moments or -galaxies that reside in our bags with other souls. We remember the same moment through a different -window. We remember that day as cold, whereas they remember it as warm. One by one, these moments -create one snapshot of the reality. The reality we create collectively. We sometimes trust our memories -and our memories always trust us. -We have a bag full of planets, stars, our favorite moments, darkest fears, best intentions and worst

+ We overlap, we crawl through the memory lane. We go silently through the gates of space and time,
+ we exchange our sights with each other and for one spectacular moment, all the stars in our bags spill
+ and we get to see through each other’s’ eyes. Our bag is now in the middle, its ready for you to
+ discover and see the networks of our minds, make knots in the middle or intervene with what we call is
