Toronto Locative Media
Dois protótipos em Locative Media serão apresentados durante o ? Nuit Blanche Interactive Alchemy, o Strata e o Witness That Place. O primeiro, com GPS e celular, visitantes podem explorar histórias de locais em Toronto. O segundo, propõe formas de interatividade através de mapeamentos online. Vejam a descrição do Spacing Toronto:
“Two prototypes in particular focus on public space. Strata is “a mobile based, GPS-enabled, interactive mediascape that features historic Canadian sites.” Guided by a GPS-enabled mobile phone to various locations, visitors can explore the stories of how these sites came to be. Fort York is a site used in Strata. Witness That Place is a “locative media project that explores interactivity through a series of online mappings and marked site specific locations. By indicating stories of trauma in public spaces the public interrogates notions of space, memory and trauma.” Locations around Toronto are also used for this project.”
