Field Mediation: C5 at The Technology Museum of Innovation San Jose, California Topic: Mingling The C5 presentation at the Tech Museum of Innovation Opening had the appearance of a round-table discussion. Over the course of two days, C5 Research-Theorists discussed Mingling Theory and Analysis as well as demonstrated RCSP (Radio Controlled Surveillance Probe) data collection tactics as Mingling. Mingling Theory(TM) constitutes a new field research developed at C5. Mingling theory and analysis was developed to address questions involving: Knowledge Engineering, Self-Organization, Network Theory, Computation, Social Networks, Surveillance and Situational Systems. C5 Field Mediations are interdisciplinary endeavors in which all Research-Theorists participate to provide a complex range of discursive positions on a topic. The event is surveilled for the public audience on-site and made accessible over the internet. Schedule of Topics   Saturday October 31, 1998 10:00-10:45 Mingling as an Object Oriented Class Library-Brett Stalbaum 11:00-11:45 RCSP Mingling 12:00-12:45 Lunch: Discussion with C5 Research-Theorists 1:00-1:45 Autopoietic Systems and Mingling-Geri Wittig 2:00-2:45 RCSP Mingling 3:00-3:45 Is Mingling Acting on the Apron Stage?-Jan Ekenberg 4:00-4:45 RCSP Mingling 5:00-5:45 On-line Mingling-Anne-Marie Schleiner Sunday November 1, 1998 10:00-10:45 Contextual Frameworks and Mingling-Steve Durie 11:00-11:45 RCSP Mingling 12:00-12:45 Lunch: Discussion with C5 Research-Theorists 1:00-1:45 Environmental Hermeneutics, Proxemics and Mingling-Kristin Cully 2:00-2:45 RCSP Mingling 3:00-3:45 Mingling Networks as Complex Entailment Structures-Joel Slayton 4:00-4:45 RCSP Mingling 5:00-5:45 Mingling Hypertextual Networks-Lisa Jevbratt Radio Controlled Surveillance Probes RCSP technology supports research of tactical strategies involving multiple surveillance probes designed for knowledge acquisition within environments composed of high degrees of uncertainty . Each RCSP is equipped with a wireless audio/video camera, digital compass and on-board control processor. Real time data encoded on each video frame provides precise orientation, speed and directional information which can be correlated to RCSP visual output and performance behavior within the probe community. Heuristic techniques enable information mapping of RCSP interaction within the environment.
