In this demonstration, we present a modern, low-cost implementation of a previously-realized multimodal gallery installation. Our demonstration centers upon the versatile usage of a smartphone for sensing, navigating, and (optionally) displaying element on a physical surface in tandem with a larger, more immersive display.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{UllmerPaarCoconuetal.2018, author = {Ullmer, Brygg and Paar, Philip and Coconu, Liviu and Liu, Jing and Konkel, Miriam and Hege, Hans-Christian}, title = {An 1834 mediterranean garden in Berlin - engaged from 2004, 2018, 2032, and 2202}, series = {PerDis '18 - 7th ACM International Symposium on Pervasive Displays, Munich, Germany, June 6-8, 2018}, booktitle = {PerDis '18 - 7th ACM International Symposium on Pervasive Displays, Munich, Germany, June 6-8, 2018}, publisher = {ACM}, address = {New York, NY, USA}, doi = {10.1145/3205873.3205894}, pages = {no. 12}, year = {2018}, abstract = {In 2004, a team of researchers realized a semi-immersive interactive gallery installation, visualizing an 1834 Mediterranean garden, introduced as "italienisches Kunstst{\"u}ck" (Italian legerdemain) by Peter Joseph Lenn{\´e}. The park was originally realized on the grounds of Schloss Sanssouci in Potsdam, Germany. The installation centered on highly detailed renderings of hundreds of plants projected upon a panoramic display. Interactivity was expressed with a tangible interface which (while presently dated) we believe remains without near-precedent then or since. We present the installation (experienced by roughly 20,000 visitors), focusing on the interaction aspects. We introduce new book and table/door-format mockups. Drawing upon a heuristic of the scientist-philosopher Freeman Dyson, we consider grounded future prospect variations in the contexts of 2018, 2032, and 2202. We see this exercise as prospectively generalizing to a variety of similar and widely diverse application domains.}, language = {en} }
