powers. now leak generation event booky easiness skills to challenge the tech giants. and enable a different technological future. one that people not the product. will just need to well. we just need to be sure that. you know where the where we got to work with the blood of if it for instance blows on to these cases that could best be very fragile. state. very difficult.

to have a strong sense of urgency to. see a launch. what i'm also aware of though is my sense of urgency can often cloud my better judgment and i can assist i'm doing something that is just simply a. high risk you're going to want to write off my hands but it's going to bite off . the facts are going to break. with a goddess. julien's i don't. base those and for quite some time of course myself a critical engineer also an artist but a first first first and foremost a credit engineer. one of the things that i do mind work is to create

projects which engender a healthy paranoia. for projects like i mean going great which was two thousand and nine. we wandering around various cities trista's in grey suits with suitcases that had displays on them. collecting and harvesting checked stations and websites. and presenting on the surface of this briefcase. we chiefs have a lot of paranoia. when you start to show that technology is not necessarily being transparent and south as to your dealings with it you see some pretty pretty interesting moment stores are when. people get new friends running out of a checking. many of us have known for a long time and even who warned against the risks of having implicit trust and

technology we don't understand most particularly network infrastructure. used to make it as a plug it redirects all of the traffic coming from the russia the owner of that news tweet box came in appeared at the news or read on that wireless network. and you can manipulate sporting results or electoral results will use headlines. to see the low ground we see the graphics and we think that it's coming directly from the b.b.c. to our fine if it's in the media it can be manipulated and you can be manipulated to. engineering is perhaps the most transformative language of the time engineering shapes the way that we move communicate and think . critically generic seeks to look at engineering as something that we need to grapple with on political terms.

the deep sleep is a means to read the surveillance infrastructure in our skies from the earth to the stratosphere. recently there are a large number of unmanned aerial vehicles that are made by companies whose clients are governments clipping information from saladin it works on my boat communications these aircraft and the communications are outside of the denying of what's understood to be. civilian knowledge. the need to understand what's going on and. we start to learning about drawings and the role a lot from the use of drones by the u.s.

military contractors in places like thought i was just part of pakistan in him and in somalia there was useful surveillance aren't there to be persistently in the year and it's collecting everything to all the waves just them signals photography in front of it and we know that a little hole over there bowed to actual permissions for millions drawings in country in germany and other places because there's no way of gathering that information most of this operation is are secret. so the subject here is what would be referred to as the payload of our. project is the very first version and it is it contains with radio frequency equipment. a very small computer. and a micro what's called a microcontroller which is a very simple sort of computer it's designed to go into the stratosphere carried by

with a balloon. when you getting up into fifteen and twenty hour kilometers above the earth that's when you would really be above a drop and the satellites that they're getting to one of the hopes is that maybe it will catch a little bit of that kind of thing and we see evidence of communication going going upward. at the point of its absolute peak the balloon bursts and the parachute or the neck that it comes all the way back down again. we have a bunch of different things i'm telling us for receiving different kinds of reducing ups this one goes from zero to thirty megahertz that that's a lot of marine naval military stuff with is on time and we find for example mobile phones and these these some tell us are

traditionally used to. look at satellites or receive signals from satellites but we're actually pointing at the watch to just gigahertz receptions or transmissions from what's going on below where this is in the sky initially we just need to get it up there and and then let it do its work in the movie able to make further adjustments and improve its. improve its performance. the first launch in the series. so we're just doing a full power start up test we want to know what we're actually taking out there when we go out there very soon and i fix it. i'll go outside for a little bit. i'm just waiting for it for a g.p.s. fix. this. received the same as from the g.p.s.

satellites. if it doesn't have a fix it seems that it doesn't report to the position properly. julia. i think get. rid receptive then restart it. i mean used to restart. the connection. not really we have been running for a couple of days on one bettery and that was great but now. all of the batteries just drained extremely quickly and we don't know why.

it's one. that you just love. while there's not enough troops already so we're we're really on the ice. we just horribly behind but you know you get it in the big jumps and. your sonata. and yours in his fitness reach none last night i fall the day before was quite good you didn't have any you know this red. bull that's not good. raking up until you have truly lost or just bloody my. it is it's a museum it's a good disease to have. i think it's one. there isn't one large contingency and that's the airspace with already he's new one just launched from

a balloon with a big shiny ball underneath it full of computational equipment without the paperwork a lot of paperwork i think. to be safe. we will get a new battery tomorrow morning. because we really don't want it to fail. hoffer satellite. often almost like. the technology will not go away i would say it's a very serious thing every. time something about how about us

governments take one extra step towards. extending the surveillance of her office. and we have basically have not. really momentum going the other way. it's very important to look at draw study use for surveillance to collect data. it's creating an archive not just permanent. this data is being used to define what is the standard behavior of a normal group or person and as an out food what is the outlier behavior and that creates a very sophisticated one way suv in system and is operating the grace fear of low. i would say human rights. the drawn in so it's just a flying object what matters is what kind of to what is being attacked and who is

using the out information. in psychiatry's an extra antenna to pretend to be one of the official ones and makes a device communicate with them so it can be listened to. it's coming in now and psychiatrists are being muscled news by law enforcement in many countries and we know that i'm sick of as i use drugs.

if you think police departments now acquiring drone technology from small to big build such that they can be fitted with cameras then you can be sure that our skies are going to be full of a hell of a lot of rights compromising middle. quite clearly there's a lot of interest in making sure that we the people don't know about it and don't know the extent of it so how else learn some hardware what else i mean when i threw . in the major problem yesterday with the battery. and now we have well actually we got another charger and we got a new battery as well. this is hundred and ten grams

together and sending hundred ten grams extra popping to the stratosphere doesn't make sense so what we're doing is just putting the right kind of connector directly . on this box so we don't have. this dead weight. it will give us hopefully a couple of thousand meters of extra altitude before the balloon burst just based on the decreased weight. we're going to launch this thing into the stratosphere and them we will not see them for a few hours. hopefully we will see together. twenty two. to go.

here go. you know with the other precious. never getting to yes. it's exciting to explore what is out there when we get the data back we. would have to try to figure out what are the extremists and what a comfort. we have no illusions or flipping i would rate the contents of communication between mysterious how to choose the eccles and the satellites that i talk to. and we are an interested and and fingerprinting devices providing material for people to be able to guess and ultimately determine what is in the skies above the. birth of

a child of twenty five point four kilometers and that would have one hundred one hundred fifty eight minutes to get there. hundred fifty eight minutes to boost. we're just looking at calculating how high it will get into and how much he leaves required because that indicates the the drift of the balloon potentially and it can make a difference between twenty kilometers and two hundred kilometers this is ok for us . but really. when london home. yeah we have to be painting. and then some polish some polish and least the basic greetings and. i mean the fama family's farm and polish things bob is going to be a beginner at this and we can't really wait too long because we have pushing for a limited period we've already we're already losing that commission as we as it is beach at. micro nation at the moment is to is to pick a bit of diverse work this is. at the wynn just come calms down a little bit of it maybe it's it's just hard.

so you're good to see would be to launch now and then and then jump in the car and go try to find it a bit of a drug overdose. you know. what style of spirits. we're going to go. and we can use these anchors to by the way.

ok it's good a good. it is very some of the certain kinds of squids the bodies of squids yeah. there was easily as i reckon it's. both books on both. of them be a word about the body of the little. lot of stress on the neck of the blue. you could have told a string the title is no joke it's like it's a it's a so don't don't know if it really really really really really really graphic novel two hands on the on the problem. it would be so obviously quite cathartic i mean it's important to sort of finish to what is otherwise been quite a bit of work but but a little concerned about that with a balloon last for instance with the meterological community as three out of five

last night. everything this man accompanied in this we're not. really doing this. i worry about the kind of really lifts this way i mean it's supposed to. supposed to be able to you know so we're just like i shake hands. one two three. trees. just a little. unbelievable there goes it's pretty. incredible to done this. and i would like to. where will this thing go who will ever say to go.

to i was kind to not. house came three hours kind four and five and then we started to become a little bit despondent damn you know we haven't. lost track of it so we went to bed and put on all those last summer's most and then sure enough the next morning we're going to finish and then we particularly it's kaliningrad it's flying out of kaliningrad and eventually a very uncomfortable silence from it and then another estimates and it landed in a field near minsk better roofs. several thousand kilometers away which is incredible blue when up to just over ten kilometers. and then it probably encountered high altitude winds and was pushed east at a mess of the mess of speed. we

believe that the deep sleep was the first civilian earth to stratosphere scan is routinely done by military but we believe we're the furthest we've got plenty of interesting forms if you like shapes that indicate traffic and activity if i just drop the scroll bar down we actually see the former presentation so this is the low low frequencies this is the mid range and this is the the high frequencies and we see as we go from the dick across like this point to point we see where there was there was in ajijic phenomena the saying that is the peaks and

drops and and rise of falls much like a mountain range or suppose. the low frequencies are predictably very energetic you've obviously got a lot of moraine more to call astronomical in the sense of radio astronomy you've got a hell of a lot of stuff that is not going to be occurring there and it's predictably. high we started to see different things the higher we got and we see some very interesting traffic in the mid range ten kilometers above the earth and we start seeing activity in it at one thousand three hundred megahertz you know we start seeing this this stuff going on there and what's happening at that at that altitude at one thousand three hundred megahertz you know that's curious for us. and in the high there were these very interesting sort of last minute bursts.

passenger planes known to be flying at that time and they're not they're not speaking of those frequencies anyway so. what is that. maybe it's a scientific project of some sort maybe it isn't a literary or whatever. there are some very distinct manmade shapes that you can only in what is that one of the doing it that our children mean this is this is curious. we don't know what it is but it's. it's exciting to know that we can actually get up there and see us and do that. we we caught something obviously there. lots of people can do this it's not illegal to study the air above us says that the mains and not available.

will come up with a you know nice for the purpose be a hell to do that we want to get the data and upload it to this wiki and then we can stop comparing. monitored trucks quantified m valued missing data being a new car for weapons your data your identity is a commodity and we have to understand where i'm from or come from our sleep and it's time to reclaim our cyber so we have to put in them a something that cannot be sold we are creators we are optimists we are brittle

gigs give us back our data at this time on a zero i was always telling you how famous he was going to make it that's how he presented hello my name about a bit out manchester city's northwest representative scan of my teaching career. as a jury member that we had the special meeting about five in there and he said no i'm sure that's not the half that i knew immediately this is a cover up you know piece on the man city yeah al-jazeera investigation its foot wall of silence. at this time in india five million children have genius level i q's but most live in poverty and go undiscovered one of the nice meals to child geniuses fighting for their chance to shine at this time without a zero up. while the world's rich take what they want. the world's poorest must beg to survive. from the streets of manila to the roots of my own people and

investigates the injustice is a globalized economy. and how different countries responds to those at the very bottom of society. begging for life. at this time on al-jazeera. so i'm fully back to go with a look at the main stories here on al-jazeera the u.s. president's former chief strategies has been questioned by investigators examining links between donald trump's election campaign and russia see van and has also been closed again by congressional intelligence panel but was tight lipped mike hanna has more from washington.
