Quite how he manages to to pull this stuff off amazes me!! He broadcasted the tralks live over the web.

Jabberwocky

Thanks to Si Hill for this link. This is fascinating - if i had the right mobile phone, i would download this software. It describes itself as “A mobile phone application for visualizing our urban Familiar Strangers”. A few sound bites for you…

“Jabberwocky is a freely available mobile phone application designed to promote urban community connections and a sense of familiarity, anxiety, and play in public urban places.”

“The principle metaphors of Jabberwockies are “digital scents” and “digital tagging”. As individuals traverse an urban landscape, they simply infuse their path with a unique and detectable digital redolence.”

“One of the most powerful elements of Jabberwocky is that it is not driven by the bits of an online network, but by actual real-life daily ebb and flow within our actual urban landscapes – by the movement and interaction (or non-interaction) of others who’s path we encounter.”

I have been meaning to link to this tangential idea [but transferable, i think] on this website. It will be no surprise to you that i think this is great!!
