Post Singapore/Malaysia Update
Just got back last week from a great vacation in Singapore and Malaysia, the police-state nature of Singapore notwithstanding (more on that in a later post). ISEA was most definitely a mixed bag, with most of the bag holding bad, with a few good here and there. Look for a review of the conference in the next month or so. I’m now at the Values in Design workshop at Santa Clara University, returning to Ithaca next Sunday/Monday.
For the moment, here’s a copy of the paper I presented at ISEA, entitled Reinterpreting networks of people as fluid for political purposes . I hope to expand upon this paper by the time this year is out.
First view of Fluid Nexus on Android
I’ve been working on porting Fluid Nexus to the Google Android platform, partially, yes, because of their challenge, but also because I want to support a platform that aims to try and open up the world of mobile phones. Here’s a short video with some of the interface features I’ve developed so far. I still have to write the code that deals with Bluetooth sending and receiving; this is more complicated than it should be, because the emulator doesn’t support Bluetooth yet
