Abstract

This paper presents early findings of a pilot study ‘in the wild’ as part of our ongoing research ‘Screens in the Wild’. It focuses on explor ing social interactions and the dynamic spatial configurations mediated by an interactive public display captured during a community event. We observed social behavior and technologically mediated interactions by actors, spectators and passers-by in the 1) direct interaction space surrounding the displays, 2) the surrounding public space and 3) across spatial boundaries (the networked space) over time. We suggest that the properties of the spatial layout play a significant role in framing the type of interactions mediated through the networked displays.
