You meet each other on line and over lunch
The people you should meet are on your badge!
We use the meta information from your profile to other delegates with whom you have a lot in common. Their faces are printed on your conference badge. Use the lunch break to locate them and find out why you should know each other.
You play with your tag
ikTag for communities in Amsterdam and NL
ikTag - combine ikTag and Alleycat, you get Alleytag? ikCat?
The little heart–shaped ikTags are RFID tags that are connected to your profile. You can use them to play outside and still connect to the community website.
You celebrate meeting
IkCam
The ikCams outside in the foyer take group pictures that will be uploaded to your profile page immediately. They will connect all people in a picture to each other on the social network.
You exchange contact details
Friend–Drink station
You show your face
And me too
Participants make profile pages that offer an overview of their involvement in Mediamatic activities. The owner of the page decides who gets to see what.
You write your own history
Geheugenvanoost was the first anyStory site in 2003
With the Amsterdams Historisch Museum We had the chance to realise a dream: our first shared story site for collective history writing. After that we made many "geheugen" (memory) websites for loca communities. Other, not–so–local uses are developing too. For instance Open Archief / Kinderen van foute ouders.
You share your dreams and stories
Research dreams
This is another application of a standard anyStory site. A very basic and standardised anyMeta implementation. Also cool is Sociaal Verhaal, part of the social workers' professional education at the HVA. It greatly accelerates the learning process.
You're all over the place

You co–make our projects
El HEMA design competition
During the El HEMA project we invited people to submit their own ideas for products. They were published directly on the website and a selection was incorporated in the show as image or prototype. The prize winners were acually produced and sold during the show.
You share your plans. Even when you're in competition.

Adi, an indian designer dating on the Mediamatic site.
In 2008, we showed "Gastarbeider dating", a series of 7 exhibitions/social sculptures by non-EU immigrant artists to the Netherlands. As part of that project we launched an on line dating service that is now used by our constituency for mostly non–artistic purposes. (Aditya Pawar)
