“Sleep/Wake Up” by Julie Morel is a project that decontextualizes the “Sleep” and “Wake Up” keys found on typical PC keyboards into a networked control for the artist’s bedside lamp. Visitors to the gallery in Toulouse, France can press the buttons which then control the lamp in Paris. A very simple binary connection, but nice implementation of the two keys on a bank wall in the gallery.

French keyboards have “Sleep”, “Wake Up”, “Eat Cheese”, and “Drink Wine” keys.
