Metropolis &Hybridization- Conceptual principles of group 6 1. The main topic 2. The idea 3. Possible Places of the interaction 4. Design criteria Overview

Metropolis &Hybridization- Conceptual principles of group 6 → Cultural and Social Diversity 1. The main topic

Metropolis &Hybridization- Conceptual principles of group 6 Our vision: Create an interactive installation which enables users to experience an authentic distant ride by any public transport which connects people from two different places. 1.1 The main topic

Metropolis &Hybridization- Conceptual principles of group 6 ...and where the idea is based on The main topic

Metropolis &Hybridization- Conceptual principles of group 6  Physical place: Two metropolises e.g.:  Sao Paulo and Hamburg 2. The idea

Metropolis &Hybridization- Conceptual principles of group 6  Our object: Urban public transport, such as  Bus  Metro  Hailed shared taxi 3. Possible places of the interaction

Metropolis &Hybridization- Conceptual principles of group 6  Inside : – Public transport as meeting point of everyday life – see the behavior and the number of people inside each “car” – communicate with each other – target group: travelers, daily users of the bus (businesspeople and workers, students, families…) 3.1 Ways of interaction -Where will the media be placed? - From which point of view does one see the object?

Metropolis &Hybridization- Conceptual principles of group 6  Outside (face): – the car is used as an interface to communicate because it rides through the city in contrast to the stop where there is no movement – target group: city (everybody who’s standing outside)  Stop: – entertainment by communication processes which will connect to the other place on the globe – target group: people waiting alone with a lot of people 3.1 Ways of interaction

Metropolis &Hybridization- Conceptual principles of group 6  Path: – Comparison of  traffic  routes,  city environment – Target group: people in the car, people outside the car 3.1 Ways if interaction

Metropolis &Hybridization- Conceptual principles of group 6  Live media – Screens – Camera – Lights (output of the sensor) – Sensors – Sounds – Internet 3.2 Digital Technologies

e.g.: Pressure sensors plus lights Hamburg São Paulo ((( Internet )))

Visual interaction: the other side of the mirror Hamburg São Paulo Hamburg (( Camera, screen and internet ))

Metropolis &Hybridization- Conceptual principles of group 6 Our intension:  No invasive design,  though we want to get noticed in the daily routine of the city! 4. Design criteria
