The Mobile City


The Mobile City is about Mobile Media // Urban Culture // Locality
Mobile media has become an interface between virtual spaces and the city! Merging the digital world with the physical world, people can upload and share real world experiences back to the digital world with other people.

The Mobile City project describes the use of location aware technologies and mobile devices to understand how those technologies can transform our experiences of urban culture.
  • working with interfaces referencing space/map/places; for instance Google Earth-mash ups or TomTom devices.

  • creating interactive, responsive geographic places for teh design of maps, to build on local meaning and chart new territories.

  • trace objects and people on the move using locative media and to coordinate realspace social networking.

  • using of locative media as a ‘space making devices’, altering the experience of a certain space through mobile phones SMS for example.
