Immortalidad: Future Social Use of Photographs

The Immortalidad project studies future social use of personal media. Grounding the work on literature and empirical data on domestic photography capture and sharing, we design future concepts that blur the boundaries between personally, socially, and professionally created media. Also, the concepts take into account the perceptions and characteristics people assign to digital and paper as format for media. Selected concepts will be implemented with project partners. The implementation involves strong user participation and evaluation to gain a better understanding of future products, services, and business for hybrid media. The project is 18 months and 7.5 person years in total.
