Designing interactions with media façades bears several challenges. One of them arises when multiple users are interacting with a media façade simultaneously. In this work we report on our experiences designing a mobile multi-user interaction system with a high-resolution back projection media façade in a public space (see Figure 1, middle). We compare different methods to distribute temporary ownership of a media façade. We further describe our systematic design process of prototyping such a system at different scales. Our presented work covers preliminary insights into the design process of media façade interactions and it addresses domain specific challenges such as designing multi-user interactions from scratch.

Mobile devices and wireless networks have a prominent place in our interaction with the environment and with each other. Like every new technology, it has been a subject to inflated expectations. Scholars, writers, artists and architects have explored how this new digital layer could reconstitute our experience of the 'real' urban world, reconfigure space and finally, recompose social interactions within it. In reality although hardly negligible, its impact has not been that spectacular. In this paper, we will outline a set of design and artistic practices attuned at understanding and articulating the interplay of the social, digital and physical infrastructures. These artistic and design artefacts outline a tangible territory of interactions which contributes to our understanding of the physicality of wireless communication and its coexistence within built architecture. Aesthetic experiments, playful interventions and critical designs all conceptualise interaction with an otherwise insensible infrastructure. We will identify common threads in the ways these artworks manipulate the wireless 'material' with a focus on the underlying motivation and resulting outcomes. Based on this, we will discuss these practices in the light of their relevance for and reference to architecture.

This paper sets out to develop and extend current literature on design practices for ambient media façades. It does this by bringing together theories of ambient media, computational aesthetics, and urban aesthetics. This unique theoretical combination has informed the design of several exemplars produced by the author, which are discussed as case studies.

In their influential book "Public space" Carr et al. describe essential human needs that public spaces fulfill: (1) passive engagement with the environment, where we observe what others are doing; (2) active engagement through intellectual challenges posed by the space, or through engagement with the people in it; and (3) excitement of novel discoveries within the space. An often underused resource in public spaces -- public displays -- can be used to stimulate these needs. In this paper we argue for a new research direction that explores how public displays can stimulate such essential needs in public spaces. We describe and conceptualize related processes that occur around public displays, based on in-depth observations of people interacting with a publicly fielded display application in a city center. Our conceptualization is meant to lay the foundations for designing engaging public display systems that stimulate PACD, and for supporting the analysis of existing deployments.

In this paper we present an example of how to work with the challenges inherent in media façade design processes. We base the paper on our experiences from the creation of a series of design proposals for a media façade on the Odenplan subway station in Stockholm, Sweden. We approach the question of how to design for media façades by discussing how we have structured our design process to address specific sets of challenges outlined in previous literature in the field of media architecture. In our view, such research is valuable in that it helps establish common ground for researchers and practitioners in a developing field by building a repertoire of approaches, as well as highlight important issues that need to be addressed in this emergent field.

Whereas many good things can be said about the ability of digital media to facilitate the public access to cultural material, there has been no significant development in the theoretical understanding of ubiquitous digital media's potential for participatory culture -- and what human typologies emerges from this reconfiguration? The small Swedish Biennale, Electrohype run an impressively straight line of investigations into the participatory spaces of art -- thereby also facilitating the dissemination of the, at that time, almost unnoticed field of media art. It appears, from the Electrohype Biennales, that we are not 'just' dealing with a 'new' genre or style within the art category; on the other hand we are not dealing with a pure commercial culture either (the abstract notion of 'the user' has its limits); what is becoming evident is that the 'implicit' roles of the participatory 'actors' in culture and art are being transformed. This paper investigates this emergent 'persona' in the post-digital participatory culture, and names it 'the implicit producer'.

One of the greatest challenges that designers and artists face when deploying interactive media displays in the urban space resides on finding the right level of audience participation. In many cases this includes the challenge of designing for sustained interaction over an 'ideal' time period. It has been acknowledged that questions concerning the meaning and purpose of public displays are expected to be addressed thoughtfully with respect to the surrounding environment, its architecture, social conventions, and the values and habits of its inhabitants and visitors. Consideration must be given to the role played by both the social context and cultural values shared by the community, since those may influence proxemic aspects [7] of the interaction and in consequence impact the designed collective experience. This paper analyses the effect of contextual constraints such as prominence and length of the exhibition on two interactive light installations. Both installations adopted media displays as a tacit element to sustain awareness of the collective experience promoted by the public space interventions. Following a nested action research approach we studied the installations in the field, which led us to formulate interaction goals and content strategies for designing the collective participation in interactive artworks. More specifically we link the identified parameters to the two extreme categories of performative and ubiquitous interaction and discuss their value for designing interactive, public media.

This paper draws on the theories of Michel de Certeau and Gaston Bachelard to discuss how media architecture, in the form of urban sound interfaces, can help us perceive the complexity of the spaces we inhabit, by exploring the history and the narratives of the places in which we live. In this paper, three sound works are discussed in relation to the iPod, which is considered as a more private way to explore urban environments, and as a way to control the individual perception of urban spaces.

This paper proposes to view the concept of an 'open city' in the light of an occupation by 'the smart city' that rules out conflict. Through an analysis of IBM's presentation of "A Smarter Planet Initiative" and "Smarter Cities Challenge", and with references to social apps, it presents and deconstructs smartness, open data and participation as technological myths for a contemporary anti-urbanity, and finally proposes to build urban technological design on a perception of openness that includes the conflicts inherent to the urban experience.

We describe the development of a toolkit using locative media and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies as an approach to enabling neighbourhoods to engage with their local built and social environment. We address how the local community informed the concept, development and presentation of the projects through a series of public consultation workshops and events where neighbourhood residents were invited to trial the projects. The paper describes and documents work in progress.
