In her work Greetings from Null Island Tamara Kametani focuses on the phenomenon of Null Island, a point in the Atlantic Ocean at coordinates 0°, 0°, where the prime meridian meets the equator. Despite having no physical landmass, Null Island has become a repository for misdirected geolocation data, errors, and digital glitches. During the residency in Ljubljana the artist explored this phenomenon as a potential site for data obfuscation and reclaiming digital agency by developing an application that allows users to digitally relocate their GPS coordinates to Null Island. By intentionally spoofing location data to this already saturated digital non-place, users contribute to a collective data camouflage, rendering their information indistinguishable and useless for commercial or surveillance-based exploitation. The work questions our growing dependence on digital services, the inevitability of data collection, and the possibilities for preserving privacy and civil liberties within increasingly monitored environments.
