Manual for IM/EXport play Rotterdam
The area of the Play is around the Witte de Withstraat.
The "Pit-Stop" is at the Ro-Theater, the center of the Play.
//move1: You are member of a tag- team. The mission of Your team can be negotiated- but for sure You are going into the city with Your eyes wide open, hunting for „objects of desire“.
//move2: Mainly Your mission would be to tag objects and to read the „home“ out of the RFID number of each tagged object. It is up to You if You want or can bring the object to its home, which is derived out of the RFID cipher in the moment You read it with the mobile phone.
OOH (OOH stands for Object Orientated Home)
- CallRO = call operator in the RO theater and instruct her.
- Emigrate = if object is movable bring it to RO. If not kill.
- Kill = Kill object and set new tag.
- Kiss = make a photo of kissing a stranger.
At the RO-Theatre an operator with an ´pata-phone is located on stage and takes all instructions, when he is called.
The players address a human operator in the theatre and instruct him to influence the map. Also the local visitors at the theatre take part in the game. They also „call“ the operator to influence the status of RFID-tagged objects.
--- Now You Set a Value 1 or 0 to the tag. This is important for the further game-play. Because, when another tag team finds the tag, it can increase or decrease the value of the tag. Uploading 0 or 1 again.
call kiss kill emigrate
--- Via the menu You can also KILL the tag. Send kill and it is out of the game- completely useless. As each tag is also linked to Your name, the danger is high that the other teams also will kill Your tags- which means a very short play...
Please go on to the next location- either to those the object is telling you or anywhere You like.
move5: // The
Lying Map is
displayed LIVE at the RO theatre with the voice of Godards Alphaville
(1968): The Black an white map is animated. Result: A "Map-Movie"
of individual squiggles, algorithmically generated from Player RFIDnumbers.

//move6: After the tagging session come to the Leuwenhaven and enter the water-taxis.
Here You have to look for Your Real Lindendollars to be able to enter the boat. The boat will take You to the other Im/ExPort game territory in the harbour, Hotel New York. Tag an object in there and go to the Las Palmas.
//move7: At the PakhuisMeesteren, an old
Im/ExPort Warehouse for goods from Surinam. We will have a Surinam
dinner together. Over this dinner we will exchange hints and
tips where the objects are placed in the „reality“ instead of
those reality the game map online displays. The dinner is the place for social engineering - necessary to
outsmart the RFID tags and their maps, to find the tags in Level2!
After dinner You can go out, try to find the tags, change their values again and overwrite their content, or bring them to another location. The age of SPIME is made useless in space and time.... the play goes on- endlessly...
