Change of plan this is quite a large section of what I'm doing at the moment. The site itself is throwing up a number of interesting questions and ideas. So part 1 is the use of current web technology as a collaberative tool. The idea of posting, virtual meeting place vs physical meting. Social loafing? The shifting role of work that is being generated. How succesful this is? How do you generate a group ethic?
How are this discussions working, using these spaces to generate work.

A test space for ideas and contributions to an MA group publication and exhibition later this year.
Ideas about the notion of dialogue, audience and communication. Defining a role for myself within this project.

The nature of the public sphere, as a place where people can congregate and meet, is changing. We need to conceive of new kinds of architecture, where a fleeting experience of city space is entangled with the folksonomies of the web.
Futuresonic plans to pull out the plug in order to take the new social spaces apart, see how they work, and put them together in new ways
Setting up an online work space. Creating network of users, collaborators. Documenting the creative process, not just the final outcome. Print this post
