For year two we ask: What shapes of knowledge–what new ‘volumes’ or ‘sculptures’–do we want to be able to create and share and how will they alter how we learn, think and communicate?
What can authoring be in XR? Is it still writing lines of text? Is it spatializing the text and if so how and by what criteria? Does it include authoring the environment? How will we be ‘Shaping’ information? How do different media fit? How should connections be made? How should our bodies and minds be integrated into the environment? How do the new affordances change our possibility space?
What can a document be in the XR environment? What should its attributes be (spatial data, interaction data, temporal data etc.), what type of data should it contain, what amount of metadata and what affordances should it be able to support? What kind of documents should be supported
