“To build a set of tools and services, spanning mobile devices and built environments, that can transform a public space into a reactive, collaboratively mediated experience”.
James Burke of Lifesized, who has been working on this: ‘it’s about how cities are are becoming more like networked computers and the Internet’.
If there is something that is on my mind more than anything right now, it’s how the future of museums will depend on the function it provides inside the city. I’m talking less along the lines of educating and providing culture to the populous, but as an ingrained node of a living city.
