Invited talks
AVI and the art system: interactive works at the Venice Biennale
Riccardo Rabagliati, Dean, Accademia di Belle Arti (Academy of Fine Arts), Venezia
Interactive works of art having a digital basis are still
confined to specialized events; very few of them are yet represented in
the main contemporary art museum and international shows of art. This
paper analyses some of the works presented in the Venice
”Biennale” art exhibition.
Distributed Intelligence: Extending the Power of the
Unaided, Individual Human Mind
Gerhard Fischer, Director, Center for LifeLong Learning and Design (L3D), University of
Colorado
The history of the human race is one of increasing
intellectual capability. Since our early ancestors, our brain have
gotten no bigger but there has been a steady accretion of new tools for
intellectual work (including advanced visual interfaces) and an
increasing distribution of complex activities among many minds. But
despite this transcendence of human cognition beyond what is
“inside” a person's head, most studies and
frameworks on cognition have disregarded the social, physical, and
artifactual surroundings in which cognition and human activity take
place. Distributed intelligence provides an
effective theoretical framework for understanding what humans can
achieve and how artifacts, tools, and socio-technical environments can
be designed and evaluated to empower humans beings and to change tasks.
The talk will present and discuss the conceptual frameworks and systems
that we have developed over the last decade to create effective
socio-technical environments supporting distributed intelligence.
From Mainframes to Picture Frames: Charting the rapid evolution of visual interfaces
Elizabeth Mynatt,
Director, GVU Center, Georgia Institute of Technology
The past four decades are witness to tremendous change in the
technical
capabilities, industry techniques, and popular expectations underlying
visual interaction between people and computers. Nevertheless we are on
the cusp of a more encompassing revolution driven by new expectations
of
increasingly personal computing experiences. In this talk I will
illustrate this nascent relationship between people and computation
driven
by the emergence of people as equally, and interchangeably, consumers
and
producers of the computing experience. Although buoyed by achievements
in
ubiquitous and pervasive computing technologies, this revolution is
fundamentally about how a blossoming literacy in computing technologies
empowers new forms of communication, reflection and decision making.
