Around Mobile - Always Beta! is the fifth workshop of the Design Department at Domus Academy in 2008. The workshop has been launched on Tuesday June the 17th, during the afternoon session.
The workshop brings together the students of the Master in Design and Master in Interaction Design. As a follow-up to the exploration carried out in the 2007 workshop first edition, students from both masters will have to join efforts to investigate the boundaries between MOBILE technologies and the world of PHYSICAL OBJECTS that are supporting both COMMUNICATION and SOCIAL PROCESSES and BEHAVIOURS.
This year seminar opens the investigatio to two new axes, focusing the attention on the OPEN SOURCE philosophy and the ALWAYS BETA paradigm. One of the objectives of the workshop will be to investigate the breadth that such phenomena can have on the mobile industry, crossing the established models of consumer electronics design with the peculiar business development modality of contemporary Web 2.0 developers.
Presentation of the seminar results is due on Friday July the 11th.
