Abstract: Over the last few years "object based media" is a term used to describe many different approaches to media production. In this talk I will outline how my work in production technologies and interaction modalities has led me to apply object based media paradigms to non-professional workflows. Through example content and descriptions of real-world deployments I will outline how we can benefit from the abstraction offered by object based media to facilitate richer engagement with media for professionals and communities alike.

Short Bio: I am a Human Computer Interaction researcher. I specialize in new media production technologies and the opportunities arising from novel interaction technologies, collaborative interaction, mobile and situated computing. I have a passion for exploring the possibilities for new media production tools, processes and social dynamics, particularly given the vast array of innovative interaction technologies and networking infrastructure now available. I bring my first hand experience of working with production technologies, as an event manager and technician, to envision new forms of media consumption, production and delivery.
