Personal view of locative media

Locative media is a means of placing media content within the real world. Currently locative media is dependent on GPS technology to obtain data (longitude, latitude, and altitude) that can be used to position coordinates that can be used as waypoints to assign content. This content can then be navigated within the real world environment (example of real world device the TomTom, rout finder). Real world locative media varies from commercial products such as the TomTom (http://www.tomtom.com/). To Art movements like Blast Theory (http://www.blasttheory.co.uk) this vereation of genra for a relatively new technology is interesting, and opens a personal question of how this technology can be inplemented or merged with other ready existing technologies.

This question will be adressed within the presentation for Monday 11 september.
