[ecrea] The Journal of Pervasive Media (Ubiquity) new issues

Intellect is delighted to announce the publication of issue 1.2 of The 
Journal of Pervasive Media (Ubiquity)

This issue of Ubiquity: The Journal of Pervasive Media presents a 
selection of behavioral prototypes that provide models for creative 
interventions, mapping a path from the gallery and laboratory, to the 
city and countryside.



In this issue, Jon Dovey and Constance Fleuriot articulate the emergent 
behaviours and language of the Pervasive Media Studio, while Nicolas 
Nova's 'portrait of the near future laboratory' frames the behaviours 
necessary to design and make tangible and speculative things for the 
near future. Also included is 'Lab Report #2' on data ecologies, 
comprising articles on harvesting, sonifying and visualizing 
environmental data.



The issue includes an interview with artist and architect Mark Shepard, 
who investigates the entanglements of contemporary technologies and 
urban life, while B. Aga explores the early work of Roy Ascott, and the 
idea that art is a form of behavior.



Finally, Paolo Maria Rodrigues, Rolf Gehlhaar, Luis Miguel Girao and Rui 
Penha report on a project in which tools were developed to allow musical 
expression in physically and mentally disabled people, and Wolfgang Fiel 
describes a project initiated by architectural group tat ort, with the 
aim of looking into living conditions of segregated, dense and 
conflict-laden social housing estates.

Call for papers Ubiquity: The Journal of Pervasive Media is an 
international peer reviewed journal for creative and transdisciplinary 
practitioners interested in technologies, practices and behaviours that 
have the potential to radically transform human perspectives on the 
world. ‘Ubiquity’, the ability to be everywhere at the same time, a 
potential historically attributed to the occult, is now a common feature 
of the average mobile phone. The title refers explicitly to the advent 
of ubiquitous computing that has been hastened through the consumption 
of networked digital devices. The journal anticipates the consequences 
for design and research in a culture where everyone and everything is 
connected, and will offer a context for visual artists, designers, 
scientists and writers to consider how Ubiquity is transforming our 
relationship with the world.

To submit a paper, please view the call for papers section of the 
Journal's home page, or contact the editors.
