Why?
====
The idea of this project is to visualize the WiFi packages that are "floating" around us all the time.

Some people are more creative than us, and created an amazing RealWorld™ representation of WiFi signals: http://yourban.no/2011/02/22/immaterials-light-painting-wifi/
Dependencies
==============================
* Scapy
* Wireless interface in monitor mode

Visualization
==============================
cat generated_log | logstalgia  -g " ,.*,0" --paddle-mode pid --hide-response-code -

or todo a real time log:
sudo ./wipi.py | logstalgia  -g " ,.*,0" --paddle-mode pid --hide-response-code -

Or, if you want to generate a video:
cat generated_log | logstalgia -g " ,.*,0" --paddle-mode pid --hide-response-code --output-ppm-stream - - |  ffmpeg -y -b 3000K -r 60 -f image2pipe -vcodec ppm -i - -vcodec mpeg4  wipy.mp4
