Podcasts series (2) for Locast project by MIT Mobile Experience Lab (locast.mit.edu)
Locast is an innovative platform for sharing and discovering location-based user-generated videos and production quality multimedia content provided by RAI New Media. It consists of a combination of Mobile and Wearable Computing elements supported by a distributed Web application. Contents gathered from RAI TV historical archives and User- Generated ones are linked to physical locations in Venice in order to be accessible to all those visiting the space.
The project focuses on the uniqueness of the Italian cities’ heritage, a worldwide patrimony superimposing a layer that corresponds to the shared media-based memory of the recent Italian past: RAI Archives.
Locast explores location-based narrowcasting potential and actively engages the users to participate in the media production/consumption process together with a historical institution such as RAI TV. It shifts the innovation from the wide-spread concept of Web2.0 to the promising scenario of Space2.0 that keeps the physical and social characteristics of the Italian cities and augment them with the potential offered by pervasive computing.
