4. Push Web?

5. Problem
* Layer that confuses: Internet != Google != IE != Web
* Layer of Social Interaction Trending Topic = TV related
* A Few Create Reusable Content but Majority are Watchers

6. Gap
It's a black board? It digests the Web? It shows Media? My
own programming can go there? Can I touch it? Can it touch
me? Is it an AD space? "TV de anúncios " - you name it.
Well it's Not Mobile, Not Desktop
Well I see you are using a TV display

7. TV or the Web?
TV
●4:3
●16:9 FullHD
●Digital TV + Web
●Broadcasting continues
●Challenge - millions of
homes will continue to
watch broadcast and they
may get extra stuff such
as a selected web.
Web
●Any Size. Desktop || Mob
●H264 -> Open Video
●Remixing Culture, Subtitles
to Open Videos.
●Challenge - missions of
users will continue to
interact and live
experiences in a
distributed social-aware
model.

8. So what is this direction?

During Freshman Week at ICMC-USP a whole week 24x7 with
the panel and we recorded images and tested a number of
web-based and social-aware scenarios:
Content: Event Week Calendar; Alumni Area; Free open Twitter
channel; News from USP site; News from Slashdot, oops even
a slight hack - party?

19. SO FAR....
Aspect Ratio: from a locked aspect ratio to fresh space
●Black boards are horizontal; TVs are horizontal if not square;
It's a world of ads all around.
TelaSocial Challenge - Look at this picture from another
angle: Not paid programming. Not using values from
mainstream TV industry or AD industry. And maybe not
believe that what was in the "TV" is the truth.
