Mara, I look forward to hearing about these strategies. The development of locative media enabling the experience of new narratives that increasingly emphasizes presence and physicaly location indeed lends itself to the building of communities virtual and in a situation of co-presence. Perhaps you could expand also on how the social networks, as I still seem them, or collaborative groups and movements, that are formed, are able to sustain themselves as open, inclusive, continually inventive and yet by virtue of growth, inevitably being increasingly aggregated bodies with directed interests that necessarily inflect control over the ways in which members are defined amongst themselves and by the larger society? Put another way, how do these tools and structures operate to redefine modes of power-distribution and contol bearing in mind that these modes also operate within cells of invention themselves?
