IUXTA augmented reality experience. IUXTA is presented as part of ISEA2013 in Sydney Australia.
IUXTA investigates the narrative possibilities of the network. Over the time of ISEA2013, a user generated, augmented reality network will evolve across Sydney and beyond. I invite you to participate in this multi-nodal narrative, a narrative that is always in a flux of fragmentation and recombination.
In IUXTA I ask you to help spread and embed my own personal and historical narrative into the physical world around us. Over time, this narrative will proliferate according to its own inner logic.
Instructions:
1.Download the IUXTA viewer from the App Store or the Google Play store.
2.Put on your headphones.
3.Run the app and allow it to find and render the IUXTA network around you.
4.Spend time viewing and listening the network as it plays out around you.
5.Add your own nodes to the network as you see fit.
6.Return at a later time to see how things change as the network evolves, and how nodes compete with each other for space and narrative dominance.
7.View and explore the local network as a whole using the IUXTA web app.
Note: Time scales in the augmented IUXTA environment are much slower than in the physical environment on which it sits. The transformation and evolution of the networked narrative is best observed over a number of days or weeks.
