Learning how to ‘mashup’ multimedia and collaborating on media projects over the Internet

• At IAD we have lots of video, audio, photos and words about our culture.

• We all got a gmail account and learned how to email, chat, talk and send each other word, audio and video files.

• We learned about making small media projects in groups by mixing words, sounds and videos together

• And we started blogging and Flickr-ing; to figure out how blogs work, & to express ourselves – how to publish ourselves.

• And then copying this media into mobile phones to make it easy to share with our friends

IAD’s computer class research project: How are people making and sharing stories on

the 2008 web? • And so what did we

need to learn to do that, and what did we make?

• Making stories that fit into mobile phones, iPods, blogs and Youtube.

Like news reporters we make a story for our tour. We first mark GPS map coordinates for every tour point then research each location on the route. We visit tour points to take photos and videos, we’ve interviewed people and used info & new media from the web.

Attaching Media Information to the real world

• At the ASTS museum rfid tags embedded in cards are being trialed.

• A user selects a card beside an artifact and swipes it across the rfid reader. This action triggers the playing of media files on the museum monitor screen.
