SutChwon (or Subject to Change without notice) is a continuous inquiry into software protocols and systems for remote collaboration, design and performance. It is a supporting initiative that develops through, with and as a part of other FoAM activities.

In the increasing number of trans-local collaborative projects, much of the design, development and distribution tasks are communicated through local and global networks. These networks consist of a variety of systems or entities and of interfaces which allow these systems to communicate to the human-readable reality. The problems typically arise when the separate entities (such as devices, systems, protocols and data-formats) attempt communicating to each other and communicating with humans about what exactly has gone wrong and what they do not understand.

With SutChwon, we scavenge technologies and build frameworks for the construction of flexible systems for communicating, collaborating and creating from a distance. These systems act as interconnecting layers between several autonomous computational entities and should allow a smoother communication between platforms, protocols, data-formats and interfaces. In the future, these systems should improve their ability to adapt to new and unknown computational environments and unpredictable situations.
