Description:
Wango: COMPOST (Compost) is an interactive system that places the audience in control of live video and audio feeds while they navigate through a real-time interface. The Wango Compost Processing Center (W CPC) combines data generated by portable recording technology attached to human vehicles called Decomposing Agents. At SIGGRAPH 97, these agents transmit audio/video information back across the Internet via the WCPC. Hosted by a virtual cyber-presence, both live and virtual attendees explore new ways of controlling media types through live inter- action. The primary goal is for people not physically in Los Angeles for SIGGRAPH 97 to be able to experience as much interaction as a person attending the conference.
