GEOTALES, 23-27 FEB 2009 ! with Esther Polak (NL)

Registration is open for our workshop on Locative Media:
GEOTALES, 23-27 FEB 2009 !
with Esther Polak (NL)

GeoTales proposes a 5 days unique and creative experimentation workshop with mobile and location based technologies (GPS: Global PositioningSystem, Mobile networks and smart phones) under the direction of Esther Polak (NL) and her assistant Tijmen Schep (NL) . While reflecting upon available tools and their influence on our world's perception, we will hit the streets to dig up experiences of real-life locative media use. From these experiments, participants will develop concepts for locative projects and make a start with hands on development of tools: based on existing open source GPS editing/tracking softwares or newly developed from scratch.
The first day of GeoTales will be dedicated to "best practices" in the field of locative media. Simon Pope (UK), Daniel Belasco Rogers from Plan B (UK/DE), Gwenola Wagon (FR) and Esther Polak (NL) are invited to present their projects. Participants will be provided with smart phones with GPS and a variety of simple GPS devices.

Registration will be open quite soon...

Une journée de workshop avec les créateurs de ShiftSpace pour comprendre et utiliser cette deuxième couche du web permettant de créer collaborativement ses notes et commentaires sur n'importe quelle page web. ShiftSpace propose un espace public ouvert au-dessus du web allant au delà des contenus centralisés et fermés. En collaboration avec le STUK dans le cadre du festival Artefact de Louvain. Inscriptions ouvertes bientôt.
