چکیده
In this paper, we offer a brief overview of our work on interactive digital community bulletin boards, highlighting the influence of media space and video communication portal research on our thinking. Following a short introduction, we describe 5 installations of interactive poster boards focusing on similarities and differences in design, setting and use. We conclude with a short discussion of public space communication, reflecting on past models and elaborating future models of “informated” environments that are designed to promote social connection.

We develop the basic theory for $mbbe$-connected sets, including the product theorem. Furtherm...

متن کاملReflecting on Several Metaphors of MUD-Based Media Spaces
Over the last decade, we designed and used three media spaces: Teamrooms, Notification Collage, and Community Bar. All were oriented towards creating a shared environment supporting a small community of people: about two to around twenty members were expected to inhabit the media space. All provided others with a sense of presence through portrait images and/or snapshot-based video of its membe...
