SITBY.US at SXSWi
Next week Matt and I are off to Austin for our first SXSW.
I am on a panel on Pervasive Games and Playful Experiences: Rendering the Real World
“The most photorealistic, networked environment you can play in is real life’. Mobile internet, pervasive gaming and sensor-enriched public spaces enable new possibilities in game-play, distributed story-telling and immersive events. Building on previous SXSW events, leading practitioners will explore the ethics, design challenges and business potential of this new form.
This session is supported by UK Trade & Investment and Arts Council, England”
I am also trying out a service/site called sitby.us. It is a twitter enabled site that allows you to share schedules, as well as share your seating location to your twitter friends. Made by the design group Weightshift.
I’ll see how it goes, but I am enjoying the interface and the connections already.
