Ars Electronica Center Exhibition
WikiMap Linz
Ars Electronica Futurelab (AT)
This is an interactive city map that enables users to customize the layout of visuals, texts and sound elements just like thumb-tacking items to a bulletin board. The programs used for the visualization of the cartographic material and the user interfaces make for easy, intuitive, user-friendly access. The intention is to get across the virtual cityscape’s specific quality through the retrievability of individual elements: soundscapes, visualized urban imaginings and text-based metropolitan impressions. The result is a unique, self-contained format for “location-based multimedia storytelling.” Plus, as a web application,WikiMap Linz is simultaneously a module of the web portal of “Hotspot Linz,” the city's wireless LAN initiative.
