An artistic investigation into electromagnetic substance in Oslo and its surroundings. Based on the Scottish physicist James Clerk Maxwell mathematical theory of oscillating electric and magnetic fields - Electromagnetism, the 'Maxwell City' lab investigated these EM fields as a major substrate of society through lectures, presentations, field trips and discussions whilst also directly engaging with electromagnetic waves as artistic material. We utilised ready-mades, hand-made, experimental objects and appropriated hardware to scan space for electro-magneticism in all its forms.
