Evan's media experiments include Explicit Content Only and Graffiti Taxonomy. James Powderly is an artist and engineer working in the field of robotics, physical computing and artificially intelligent art. James studied at New York University's Tisch School of the Arts and the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences, receiving his Master's Degree from the Interactive Telecommunications Program.

Mark Shepard and Adam Greenfield, co-authors of Situated Technologies Pamphlet 1: Urban Computing and Its Discontents, will consider how ubiquitous computing may change urban life in this panel discussion launching the series. Additional panelists to be announced. This fall the Architectural League of New York launches a nine-part publication series--co-edited by Mark Shepard, Omar Khan, and Trebor Scholz--to be published over the next three years--exploring the implications of ubiquitous computing for architecture and urbanism. Born out of the three-day symposium presented by the League, the Center for Virtual Architecture, and the Institute for Distributed Creativity in October 2006, the series will consider how our experience of the city and the choices we make in it are being affected by mobile communications, pervasive media, ambient informatics and other ?situated? technologies. How will the possibility of designing increasingly responsive environments alter the way architects conceive of space? What do architects need to know about urban computing and what do technologists need to know about cities? Situated Technologies Pamphlets will be edited by a rotating list of leading researchers and practitioners from art, archite! cture, technology, and sociology. Adam Greenfield is a writer, user experience consultant and instructor at New York University's Interactive Telecommunications Program. Before starting his current practice, Studies and Observations, Adam was lead information architect for the Tokyo office of well-known Web consultancy Razorfish. His clients have included Toyota, Sony, Capgemini, and various agencies of the United States government.

Most recently, he keynoted the 2007 International Conference on Pervasive Computing. His 2006 book Everyware: The dawning age of ubiquitous computing, has been acclaimed as ?groundbreaking,? ?elegant,? and ?soulful? by Bruce Sterling, and ?gracefully written, fascinating, and deeply wise? by Wired?s Steve Silberman. He lives and works with his wife, artist Nurri Kim, in New York City. Mark Shepard is an artist, architect and researcher whose cross-disciplinary practice draws on architecture, film, and new media in addressing new social spaces and signifying structures of contemporary network cultures. His research investigates the impact of mobile and pervasive technologies on architecture and urbanism. His current project, the Tactical Sound Garden [TSG] Toolkit, is an open source software platform for cultivating virtual sound gardens in urban public space. It has been presented at museums, festivals and arts events internationally, including the Contemporary Museum, Baltimore, Maryland; Conflux 2006; Brooklyn, New York; ISEA 2006, San Jose, California; SIGGRAPH 2007, San Diego, California; Futuresonic, Manchester, UK; Sonar Festival, Barcelona, Spain; The Electronic Language International Festival ?
