Messages
That Travel
Through
Physical Space
A delay-tolerant mesh network where information has weight, distance, and time.
The Network You Use
Is The Network They Watch
Every message routed through centralized infrastructure is a message that can be logged, analyzed, blocked, and sold.
Samizdat Mesh proposes an alternative: information that moves through physical space, carried by humans, stored in devices hidden in plain sight.
No servers. No logins. No logs.
Just physics.
How It Works
The journey of a message through physical space
Deposit
A message is encrypted and written to a hidden Throwie.
Transit
A Mule passes nearby. The message hops via ESP-NOW to their device.
Delivery
Eventually, a Mule passes a Sink. The message surfaces to the world.
The Hardware
Three device classes form the physical backbone of the mesh
Throwie
ESP32-C3 SuperMini powered by LiFePO4. Sleeps for months. Stores 16 NVS messages.
Mule
Mobile relay app. Ferries messages between nodes without internet. Zero config.
Sink
Raspberry Pi bridge. Aggregates messages and surfaces them to the global network.
