N2 - Every year we spend a greater proportion of our daily lives, at home, in business, in education, and in entertainment, in front of a computer screen. As networking becomes commonplace, this increasingly includes our activities with other people. We want to aim at a richer interaction. How can technology become a seamless extension of our real world physical surroundings? This is a focus of research at the NYU Media Research Laboratory. We are developing new approaches to large-scale physically immersive, multimedia environments. Recently we collaborated with film students and faculty from the NYU Tisch School of the Arts to create three room-sized computer-mediated immersive environments. This short paper will summarize our approach to interdisciplinary research in the context of developing new technologies for immersive environments.
