Graduate Research Group: Situated Technologies
The SITUATED TECHNOLOGIES Graduate Research Group focuses on the design of artifacts, spaces and media that are responsive to their context. We are interested in the possibilities offered by computational technologies for exploring new forms of social interaction with and within the built environment. Our focus areas include learning environments, design environments, responsive architecture and pervasive media. Computational technology provides both a means and a medium for this research: an operative paradigm for articulating relations between people, information, and the material fabric of everyday life.
The faculty associated with the research group are also members of the Center for Virtual Architecture and Situated Technologies. The Center conducts sponsored research in Learning Environments, Responsive Architecture and Pervasive Media.
