It also provides a detailed case study which contextualises and supports the studio project, the produced online documentary A Satellite Solution. A Satellite Solution is an experiment with the nonlinear documentary form and is designed to assist communities connected to the internet by providing an exemplar that demonstrates how they may similarly upgrade and practically install their own communications systems.
