The Paradigm of Augmentation: Immediate Interactivity and Cooperative Design
Abstract
This contribution aims to contextualize the increased reality within the mediological field, looking at it as an occurrence of the avant-garde paradigm, and highlighting some of the forms of interactive textuality that used this model. In the first part, we will try to correlate with the concept of radical remodeling and mediation proposed by Richard Grusin, looking at the structures and meanings, typically postmodern, which participate with them in technological evolution. Secondly, the emblematic case of the city and the urban space will be analyzed in two directions: the territory, understood as technically written text by the user, and the spatial value of the text, understood as programming scripts, narrative, browsable, and performable. The goal is to understand the ways in which this technology - in its natural evolutionary path - affects the user's emotional and emotional experience, creating complex processes of narrative and collaborative meaning making paradigmatic use of the model of augmentation.
