Brief Explanation

The fiber broadband provider ume.net offers one of the fastest internet connections in the world. To highlight this, we performed an experiment that brought internet’s biggest disturbance to life - lag, a common symptom of slow connection. By equipping four volunteers with a custom-built lag machine that could adjust video resolution and simulate real-time buffering and delay, we illustrated how frustrating slow connections can be. The film demonstrated how simple, everyday tasks such as cooking or bowling became extraordinary hard with real-time lag, and targeted an audience that appreciates and understands the need for fast connections - tech and gaming enthusiasts.
