[Nettime-nl] Press Release 7 Scenes


The city is a stage, and you are the director

How would you create a scene where actors would shine and spectators would cheer? 7 Scenes will allow you to use your mobile phone to browse through different scenes in a city play. Wednesday 26 September at PICNIC’07, Waag Society’s Locative Media programme is running a workshop and kickoff of 7Scenes.

7 Scenes
7 Scenes is a portal and mobile technology platform available to everyone to freely create, experience and watch new types of urban play. With live, multi-user and location based technology. Come and see the future, witness how 7 Scenes lets you connect the physical with the viritual in a way that makes sense to you.
