Abstract

The public space is a field, which is created and becomes alive through various forms of interactions. Thus the interactive art with its life proximity, communicative issues and reflection of the power of the modern technologies is well suited to be linked with the urban public space.
The site presents interactive media projects, which went consciously into the urban space. The analysis and categorization show, how the new media can be alternatively used, in order to contribute to the rediscovery und reactivation of the urban space and to lead to new interaction qualities. Interactionfield offers as open work an expandable list for adding further projects. With the time an extensive archive can develop, with examples, that show new ways in dealing with the public space.
The work is based on my theoretical thesis "Interactionfield - Public Space in the Digital Age", which can be downloaded.
