Abstract

The i2tv (interactive Internet-TV) system enables the realisation of live media productions and networked scenarios integrating Internet participants with participants on site. The challenge is to create a situation in which both on-line and on-site participants feel present and involved, while retaining the spezial properties of each modelity of presence. To achieve this, the i2tv system combines technologies for Internet-based multi-user interaction and awareness with broadcast technologies such as Internet streaming and Virtual Studio, as well as with technologies for Mixed Reality in shared physical space. This enables scenarios in which the audience, both local and on the Internet, can actively shape the connected event, using text, image, live audio or video. Application models for i2tv include the extension of the conference format into a Mixed Reality situation at the Memoria Futura Symposium and the re-conception of Ernst Jandl’s "Otto’s Mops" sound poem as a distributed poetry play and Mixed Reality television game.
