Abstract

The rapid densification of urban areas around the world offers exciting opportunities for new place-based artworks and loca-tive media that aim at engaging, informing and entertaining members of local communities. In this paper, we introduce a design competition for concepts of interaction design which display visual evidence of connectivity in a master-planned community. This competition is based in and focuses on one of Brisbane's newly built inner urban renewal developments. Furthermore, we introduce the conceptual interaction design of one of the competition's winning entries, as well as its potential and its challenges to engage local residents in participation and exploration of place-based information and community media.

Citation countsare sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science citation databases.

These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science generally from 1980 onwards.
