Next generation of technology will speak to us, understand us, and perceive our behavior. Such an intimate technology ends up with things like technophilia, techno-romance, technodrama, affinity, etc.

The experience is controlled by a composition which anticipants the participants’ action and flirts with his expectation. Flirt here is the best verb. Just think of Siri on I phone 4s and further versions.

Contemplative mood of the environment. Is delay a good simulation for contemplation?

In order to respond intelligently the computer should perceive as much as possible about the participant’s behavior. This idea may cause a very to the point simulation for contemplation. The more information to perceive, the more delay are caused by contemplation.

The hope is that, in not too many years, human brains and computing machines will be coupled together very tightly, in a way not approached by the information-handling machines we know today. But what if their cooperation would be destructive? In other words what if they run noticeably different ideas on certain thing? The question probably would be who is the absolute power? If there is no defined power or authority how it could be a symbiosis? And if not how would be the struggle or the challenging dialectic?

The problem is to provide an interesting personality for the environment. Where is the environment, I think till now we were able to personalize our virtual environment? Beginning from smart phone themes or desktop background as simple examples to how we program and manage our devices to work as more complicated issues.

The environment with sub environment. The “environment” as a term here is really close to “place” as a term in architecture. Providing a responsive space as it is mentioned here which is better to be “responsive place” is not the goal. However here the discourse is on responsive place being produced or modified by machine or at least also by machine, because throughout history places are made and remade by humans and interaction of them. This game is recommended to have another new player.

The rules of the modelled space can be totally arbitrary and physically impossible, e.g. Approach seeking to model impossible activities or better to say new possibilities in the aforementioned virtual place (environment). Place would be information, if data is environment.

A game between the compute and the participant. Man-computer symbiosis may be the further step. Next would be the artificial intelligence and If the other next step is the consultant intelligence for men the last would be defining the balance of power between these two holder of intelligence.

 

At the end, I recommend these movies.
