I find these conversations about AR and art, very interesting.The first article
deals with the problems that arise when AR is uncontrolably added into sophisticated
museums like MOMA onto historic and powerful artworks. The fact that the modern day
museum higher-ups are embracing this type of gurilla artwork, is in my opinion - refreshing.
This is an inevitable change in my opinion, and the willingness to accept the art form
and respect nonconventional practices, even when affecting their space, is refreshing.
As for AR and ownership/propert rights - I agree completely that they are about to have
an epidemic on their hands, if they don't have one already. This is going to create a whole
new conversation in the courtroom.
Q: What are the effects this may have on the physical inhabitants of this space?
A: My project 2 I don't see effecting the physical inhabitants of the space. If anything, it will
educate and inform the person using the website about endangered species, but it won't effect anything
living in the national park.
Q: What kind of relationship does your site create between its virtual visitors and the corresponding real world space(s)?
A: My site will hopefully create a connection between the ecosystem of their environment and the
awareness/caring of the person using the website.
Q:What are some of the benefits of your location-based media? What are some challenges that may arise?
A: A benefit of my location-based media is that it could encourage people to visit national parks. A challenge
that could arise is if there is no service in the national parks/forests.
