Recent Workshop at UbiComp 2005
Upcoming Festival / Conference: ISEA 2006 Interactive City
Testing...this is not a Simulation event at SFMOMA
Eric Paulos is a Research Scientist at Intel in Berkeley, California where he leads the Urban Atmospheres (http://www.urban-atmospheres.net/) project – challenged to use provocative methods to understand the future fabric of our emerging digital and wireless urban landscape. Eric received his PhD in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from the University of California, Berkeley where he researched scientific, and social issues surrounding internet based telepresence, robotics, and mediated communication tools. Eric has developed several internet based tele-operated robots including, Mechanical Gaze in 1995 and Personal Roving Presence devices (PRoPs) such as Space Browsing helium filled tele-operated blimps and ground based PRoP systems (1995-2000) (www.prop.org).

The Urban Atmospheres is focused on exploring how our everyday objects and public places can be augmented in meaningful and playful ways. Just as we find tagging and message play in public places, so to will we find personal place based digital tools providing a rich patina to our lives. This research effort is interested in exploring several themes within this space. A few are listed below:
Sashay (coming Summer 2006)
Matchbooks (coming Summer 2006)
Intimate Computing
We are interested in understanding intimacy as a theme in ubiquitous computing research and its value to people. In particular creating tools that connect people in novel and meaningful ways and further promote the building and sustaining of relationships to groups and others.
