Designing Mobile Low-Resolution Media Architecture: Challenges, Opportunities and Goals
In Proceedings of the 5th ACM Conference Media Architecture Biennale (MAB '18). Beijing, China, November 13 - 16, 2018. ACM, New York, NY, USA.

The fusion of digital media and the built environment is commonly summarized under the umbrella term Media Architecture, a field where we have conducted intensive academic research during the past eight years. To connect our research expertise towards new application areas we want to share approaches designing a highly aesthetic form of mobile Media Architecture visualized via Low-Resolution (low-res) lighting displays, we hereafter refer to as Mobile Low-Resolution Media Architecture (MLRMA) where we mainly focus on civic open data application areas. In this MAB 2018 workshop we will therefore outline how our previous research informs and connects to MLRMA and present a design tool led by a set of challenges to pave the road for further investigations.
