from august 1 to 4 2004 _knowscape mobile stands at DIS2004 symposium (ACM SIGCHI), which takes place in the Boston Marriott Cambridge Hotel in Cambridge (Massachusetts).

this time, _knowscape mobile s(t)imulates space configurations in relation to architectural typologies and architectural models (1:20 I-shaped building, T-shaped building, cross-shaped church, square-shaped courtyard), into a conference hall. through a series of boolean operations (intersection and exclusion), _knowscape mobile mixes electronic and physical spaces to generate 4 distributed microarchitectures (one per day). for each typology, a specific relationship between electronic and physical spaces is created, producing a kind of "space tagging".

to generate these "networked typologies" (augmented information / reduced presence), all the electronic devices [laptops, beamer, ...] are networked and localized, which transforms each of them into a visual interface, open and linked windows on the data territories.

visitors are invited to interact, either from the sensible space [Boston Marriott Cambridge, 2 Cambridge Center (Broadway & 3rd Street) Cambridge, MA 02142 USA, GPS 42° 21' 45'' / -071° 05' 11''] or from the internet, within this new kind of hybrid environments.

_knowscape mobile at DIS2004 is thus a microarchitecture associating a distributed territory of data and physical localized spaces during a defined period of time, linking architecture, information and browsing.
