The document summarizes the EXPERIMEDIA project, which aims to accelerate research on innovative Future Media Internet technologies through testbeds. The testbeds will support experiments exploring new forms of social interaction and experience in both online and real-world communities. This will be conducted through real-world and large-scale trials of FI technologies. The project involves 11 partners from 8 countries and has a budget of over 6 million Euros to support experiments through open calls and live events.

3. Future Media Internet Collective
Experiences
 Create value by linking people to each
other and to locations in ways that
capture popular imagination
 Seeking experiments in the areas of:
 personalised entertainment supporting
interaction non-linear story-telling, and
immersive experiences
 social communities using 3D
environments to communicate and
interact
 capture and reproduction of the real
world in 3D
 perceptual congruity between real and
virtual worlds
 Service infrastructures adapt to dynamic
socially distributed, fixed and mobile
content
