mobility, city as interface, urban fiction, locative media, third space

This poster is concerned with the development of a conceptual and technological framework for the realization of locative media artworks. Our approach focuses on multiplicity and hybridity, and seeks to create an instrument out of the urban environment. Mobile phones become the instruments that probe into the urban fabric and the lenses that modulate the way we perceive this web of threads. The poster looks at the instrumental and theoretical framework and three concepts that put them into practice. This poster was co-authored by Dr. Atau Tanaka. Finical support provided by Cultural Services of the French Embassy, Consulate General of France in San Francisco.
