This was a talk that I gave at the WorldFuture2012 conference covering some of my research mapping the future direction of locative media, which is essentially the convergence of our networked, real-time, digital world with the physical world we inhabit in our everyday lives. This was part of the "Best of Houston" panel showcasing some of the work from students in the University of Houston's Futures Studies graduate program.
