Comments on: Newsleak – A Sentient Media Publication http://timdevine.net/news-leak/ The architected experience is a primary quality of modern life, prevalent in our home, office, transportation and social environments. Much of this experience is driven by computing and today’s computing is everywhere.

We often discuss this idea of customisation and people talk about how it is more practical on a mobile device or in conjunction with a mobile device, but we approach this work from the perspective that Newsleak is a printed publication accessible in urban environments and soon as a digital publication in cyberspace. One of the main points of this work is that people without wifi or anything close to a smart phone are able to access such information, and that the information the publication covers literally leads the reader from the real world through to cyberspace. Also the information in the publication is very relevant to the location it is accessed. We show local news, tweets, music events and the device itself is capturing photos every 30 seconds. It is still being formed but the thesis and format is strong - Global Space > Local Space > You > Social Cyberspace > Cyberspace Thanks for the feedback.
