Mobile After-Media, Cultural Narratives and the Data Imaginary

Author: Eric Kabisch
Session: After Mobile Media

In this talk, Eric defines "after media" as a medium that defines itself in relation to its predecessor. He develops a a representational ontology that exists in a virtual world environment that is not too literal but also allows for alternate visions of a space.



He presents Datascape, a geographic storytelling platform that enables people to narrate their local communities through geographic data.


Participants ride in a van and see an overlaid ecology of demographic information about the communities they are driving through.
