like...

27. … to pioneer new businesses?
Objects, places, people can communicate any
kind of information when you connect them
to the Internet using Augmented Reality,
Ubiquitous Computing and Location Based Media.
Your business can be anywhere, anytime. Even
in the most unexpected places.

28. … to embrace new Ethics?
35% of consumers are ready to become
active boycotters towards those companies
not conducting acceptable social and
ecological policies.
Open new dialogues using P2P social media,
Augmented Reality and Location Based
Content.

29. … to express yourself?
A polyphonic view of the world. Multiple voices open
infinite dialogues to tell the emergent, infinite tale
of life, culture, art, creativity.
Interactive environments, natural interfaces, location
based interaction systems, wearable technologies
can turn spaces, objects and bodies into places for
communication and expression.

30. … to break the codes?
This is a heavily coded reality. Innovation and
creativity can only emerge from the interstices,
from the spaces between the codes.
Recontextualize, remix, mash-up and detourn the
world using Augmented Reality, Ubiquitous Micro
Narratives, Wearable Technologies and Relational
Architectures.

31. … to promote alternatives?
Alternatives that work are alternatives that
talk to people, relate to them, be there, right there
when they're most needed. Be them economic,
philosophical, social, artistic, informational.
Disseminate and live your alternatives using
Location Based communications, Ubiquitous
Publishing, spimes, Augmented Reality.

32. … to reinvent the present?
Close your old eyes and open up new ones.
Create your new world. Connect it to the worlds of
the people around you. Communicate, inform, share,
buy, sell, invent. Don't let the world tell you what
to do. Create and join the multi-author story of
everything that surrounds you.
The ending is open. The plot is emergent.
