TV vs Metaverse - The Mixed Reality Perfect StormGary Hayes
A presentation given by Gary Hayes the Director of Australia's Laboratory for Advanced Media Production at a seminar at the Museum of Sydney on 17 May 2006.
THE MIXED REALITY PERFECT STORM
“I think we are really approaching a perfect storm, a mixed reality perfect storm, because we are seeing several things happening. The first one is a long history of games based on TV and films, the foundations are already there. Another force creating this storm is virtual worlds, particularly the exponential growth of customisable ones and more importantly external integration into them. The third force is audience behaviour. They are involved in far more simultaneous activity particularly between broadband web and TV. The fourth element to this perfect storm is actually what is happening to TV and film, especially live reality TV becoming more game like and film becoming fantasy based. All of these forces together are creating a really potent mix” Gary Hayes 17 May 2007
Gary looks at the four forces that are coming together to create perfect conditions for this hybrid form of entertainment. He looks back 10 years at early inhabited TV 3D world experiments when he was an innovation producer at the BBC and then forward to the latest cross-over services where TV properties become virtual and where the virtual world appears inside traditional forms. He looks at virtual worlds such as there.com, second life, PS3 Home, Habbo Hotel, Neopets etc: and how properties such as Big Brother, Laguna Beach, The Hills, Pimp My Ride and a range of consumer brands that are creating engaging and immersive hybrid entertainment.

The Fragments of Play - Transocialmedia EntertainmentGary Hayes
A keynote presentation at IADIS Multi Conference on Computer Science and Information Systems 2009 Algarve, Portugal 17 – 23 June 2009
THE FRAGMENTS OF PLAY
Inter-connected, Co-Created Social Media Entertainment
There are many media revolutions taking place the most powerful of which is still the transition from passive to participatory media. This is exemplified by the collision/mashup of games, TV and films as a new dominant immersive form and part of the on-going transformation of one way story-telling to co-created and distributed. This talk will investigate the nature of the playful, networked audience across online worlds & games, participatory film & TV and location based stories all helping to define social media entertainment. How are new audiences being classified, by their age, behaviours or how they themselves tell their new stories across multi-platform, multi-sensory environments. Some key paradigms and enabling services and technologies to be explored will include mixed reality, personalization, inhabited TV, emotional intelligence, machinima, cross-media identity and distributed play.
An opening presentation looking specifically at Serious Games examples & case studies from the perspective of content potentially suitable for inclusion and managed by libraries of the future. This is not about just placing game consoles inside existing libraries but about a fundamental shift in how libraries can become the conduit for 'scenario based' play across a range of intentions...
Presentation given on 3 April 2009 in the new AFTRS theatre as part of a LAMP 'Interactive' Workshop. A new taxonomy by Gary Hayes and an overview of the form & many of serious games, brief history & their natural affinity with documentary.
The intersection between documentary filmmaking and games will be explored in this seminar and workshop, providing deep insight into the potential of Serious Games.
Both games and stories have long been recognised as powerful learning tools. Their combination in the 21st century has the potential to provide learning experiences that are collaborative and globally connected. What are the best examples of Serious Games and where are they heading? How can Serious Games be employed by educators, corporations or non-profit organizations?
Screen Australia and the ABC have recently announced a funding initiative in the area of Serious Games. This seminar will bring you up to speed with the latest developments in serious games and provide an opportunity to present your own concepts and workshop ideas with experts in an afternoon workshop.
What's Wrong with Transmedia Content? Where's the Funding?Gary Hayes
A brief 10 minute presentation given by Gary at the Content Crises and Convergence Roundtable Day in Sydney on Aug 8 2011. Run by the ARC Centre for Excellence for creative industries and innovation - more details of the day here.

Beyond Linear, TV 2.0, The Future of Film and TVGary Hayes
A specific presentation on new forms of linear video possibilities. Ten ways to create new experiences for viewers/participants based around film/TV forms. Delivered as part of the 3rd LAMP residential in Western Australia in May 2006.
In summary: To attract audiences across the range of media
delivered across this sea of devices and delivery channels:
•Audiences want to be able to push and pull their content without
barriers
•Advertising will lead innovation and dominate even more in
cross-media markets
•Professional producers will differentiate themselves from UGC
by creating interactive cross-media, or multi-layer rather than
mono-media
•Do not forget where the audiences are moving to
User Journeys, Personal Services, Natural EvolutionGary Hayes
A presentation given to ABC TV teams on a LAMP residential. Looks are the importance of the user journey and personal resonance in experience design. Also includes amongst the opening slides a bizarre prediction Gary gave of what the media landscape would be like in 2009 - but the prediction came from 2000!! Here is a snippet of that one:
The World in 2009 - according to Gary at SSBP, March 2000
•The World Wide Web of early 2000 is regarded as a ‘low resolution’ pilot
•Every individual can become a producer of content which is available
to everyone else - if they want it.
•All ‘content programme brands’ have elements in all of the above
•Everything can be made portable & kept forever
•CD collections, home movies, personal photographs are stored here too
•Now anything else is available on demand from anywhere over vast
broadband networks.
•Everything is ‘pulled’, only personally relevant content is ‘pushed’.
•The words ‘TV’ ‘radio’ & ‘internet’ disappeared from our vocabulary. Even the word ‘interactive’ went - everything is now interactive
•Scheduled ‘live video’ becomes a special group shared event - there is only one broadcast channel in each country - these events generate
most online discussion
•The home becomes a personalised entertainment and life system
where everything is centralised - games, video, shops, audio, text,
email & vmail & banking.
•‘Open Standards’ killed off all proprietary platforms in 2005 and the large ‘trusted’ traditional broadcasters collaborated and produced one
navigation system that all companies adopted
•True to all predictions the ‘interactive’ fridge becomes the most popular, connected device in the house
Fragments of Attention - Transmedia AlchemyGary Hayes
Accompanying post http://www.personalizemedia.com/navigating-the-world-of-multi-platform-transmedia-rituals/
Given at Colab's Envisage Keynote at Auckland University on 23 March 2011 by Gary Kayes. A short talk that looks at recent evolution of multi platform and changing user behaviour. It will highlight the reason traditional storytellers, marketeers and service providers are, for their own survival, needing to develop new transmedia forms. What are some of the most compelling examples thus far, is there really a business here and where are we truly headed? Gary will take us on a short ride through a fragmented media landscape and some of the transmedia attempts to help glue it back together again.

"Connecting With Your Audience on the Social Web"
Telling stories to each other has been the right of everyone but until the last few years the privilege of a 'broadcast' few. With the advent of quality production tools accessible to all and many new cross-media channels to connect your story world with everyone elses, there is a blurring between beginner, amateur and professional - everyone is now an independent producer. What will it mean for existing linear TV/film makers, how will they truly engage across the social web, YouTube, Virtual Worlds, Blogs, Online Games, Flickr and hundreds of other social media portals across a growing broadband web?
This talk looks at existing and future forms of entertainment that 'involves' the audience, that connects to them and from them and more importantly, builds mutual trust and respect. From the pushed web 1.0, to the sharing 2.0 to a live and immersive web 3.0, Gary looks at successful case studies of 'connected' entertainment around the world and some of his own work at BBC, game and virtual worlds and selected projects at LAMP and AFTRS.

Personalized Home Entertainment and Human BehaviourGary Hayes
A presentation to the Australian Communications conference in Canberra November 2006. It covers an introduction to LAMP then looks at human need and the likely futures for home entertainment.
The concept of work-life balance today is obsolete. This conference took a deeper look at people, projects, products, and services that we can all leverage to try to LIVE, WORK, and PLAY BETTER.
There's lots of talk about Google Plus. From the fastest growing social network to the least used, everyone has an opinion about its merits and benefits.
The one things that everybody agrees on though is that it has immense influence when it comes to search results - and happens to integrate a pretty neat social network to boot.
We've tried to put together a guide as to exactly what the benefits are and whether or not you should be looking to launch your Google Plus presence.
Let us know what you think below - have you found any other benefits to it?
Future opportunities for broadcasters enabled by personal TV systems was given by Gary Hayes, then BBC Senior Development Producer, at NAB in Las Vegas on April 2003. It covers the slow progression to on-demand, personalised capture of relevant content and gives an insight into the many new advertising models that are starting to appear on the scene now.

•Scheduled TV will mostly be limited to live sport
and news
•Distribution of TV content will be 90%
broadcast/band and wireless to PTV systems the
rest high capacity DVD
•You will have portable profiles worldwide and
will receive their content anytime/where
•All promos and ads will all be highly targeted
•Viewers will all have large home servers feeding
many displays and devices (in and out of home)
•Programmes will be made for time-shifted, large
groups of niche audiences
•Linear AV only TV will be in the minority

A presentation given to open the Screenwest Digital Lab in Perth in March 2015. The talk focuses on user centric, experience design and challenges the audience to consider more holistic interaction approaches, especially to consider it their project really moves beyond the lower levers of interactivity. The final sections of the presentation look at interactive documentary, some game changer services and tech for storytelling and ends on the importance of parallel production and a taster of the EPOC.

Personalized Home Entertainment and Human BehaviourGary Hayes
A presentation to the Australian Communications conference in Canberra November 2006. It covers an introduction to LAMP then looks at human need and the likely futures for home entertainment.
The concept of work-life balance today is obsolete. This conference took a deeper look at people, projects, products, and services that we can all leverage to try to LIVE, WORK, and PLAY BETTER.
There's lots of talk about Google Plus. From the fastest growing social network to the least used, everyone has an opinion about its merits and benefits.
The one things that everybody agrees on though is that it has immense influence when it comes to search results - and happens to integrate a pretty neat social network to boot.
We've tried to put together a guide as to exactly what the benefits are and whether or not you should be looking to launch your Google Plus presence.
Let us know what you think below - have you found any other benefits to it?
Future opportunities for broadcasters enabled by personal TV systems was given by Gary Hayes, then BBC Senior Development Producer, at NAB in Las Vegas on April 2003. It covers the slow progression to on-demand, personalised capture of relevant content and gives an insight into the many new advertising models that are starting to appear on the scene now. The final slide are some future predictions for 10 years time: Postulations - PTV 10 years hence…
•Scheduled TV will mostly be limited to live sport
and news
•Distribution of TV content will be 90%
broadcast/band and wireless to PTV systems the
rest high capacity DVD
•You will have portable profiles worldwide and
will receive their content anytime/where
•All promos and ads will all be highly targeted
•Viewers will all have large home servers feeding
many displays and devices (in and out of home)
•Programmes will be made for time-shifted, large
groups of niche audiences
•Linear AV only TV will be in the minority
What is interactivity anyway? Beyond Story,Tech & Futurism. Designing Experie...Gary Hayes
A presentation given to open the Screenwest Digital Lab in Perth in March 2015. The talk focuses on user centric, experience design and challenges the audience to consider more holistic interaction approaches, especially to consider it their project really moves beyond the lower levers of interactivity. The final sections of the presentation look at interactive documentary, some game changer services and tech for storytelling and ends on the importance of parallel production and a taster of the EPOC.
Personalised Audiences, Immersive ServicesGary Hayes
A presentation given at the sixth LAMP residential in Tasmania in Oct 2006. Looks at a vast range of ways to design services to make them more sticky with participatory audiences. True audience centric thinking. Broken into specific needs chapters - I want it everywhere, I want to escape, I want to be understood, I want to connect with the world, I want it now, I want to share, I want to take part.
A few slides at the end partly relevant on a 'whats cool talk on collaborative muve'

Something In The Air - The Future Of PersonalizationGary Hayes
A presentation from way back in October 2004 at XMediaLab - much still relevant today. This pre-dates YouTube but refers to the in-coming tidal wave, audience centric thinking and its final section about the very relevant now, portability and interoperability of personal profiles.
A Presentation About You - The Personalized AudienceGary Hayes
A presentation given as part of the the first LAMP (lamp.edu.au) residential in South Australia Oct 2005. Still highly relevant tips and techniques to make services more personally resonant with audiences/participants.
"True interactivity should require users to give something of themselves and for the ‘system’ to resonate with that. If all you ask them to put in is selecting a series of vacuous pre-built options, their engagement is minimal and all they will truly get out is a series of vacuous outcomes.”
Gary Hayes 2005 - www.personalizemedia.com
Personal not generic. The ultimate forms of service
personalization are:
• helping people connect with each other
• services that evolve and are dynamically matched and
resonate to them
• helping people understand more about themselves
A presentation about cross media given in 2000 to teams of BBC producers on a series of development labs about audience centric design and production thinking and creating compelling cross-media. It covers on-demand, mobile, social networks, on-demand - example:
What they say they want...
•I need to explore in more depth, at my own pace
•I want to ‘link’ out to more - especially around my local area
•I expect relevant facts & activities on demand - immediately
•I would like episodic rich media, video and audio
•I want to personalise my experience - choose my own routes
•Let me contribute, give my opinion to others and the makers
•I would like the producers to automatically know what I
“really” found interesting - during and for next time.
A remarkable thing about the presentation it was delivered in 2000, long before 360 thinking and social networks were the norm.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Second Life (creation around 30% of time) active monthly
participants around 900 000 are in-world between 42 to 58 hours
per month.
Compare with (source MediaGuardian):
- Facebook’s 75 million users on for just 4 hours per month.
- 132 million Americans watching YouTube but they just watch 5
minutes per day, or 2.5 hours per month.
- TV watching is irrelevant to generation c and already in the UK
for all generations, more time is spent online than in front of TV
“Second Life has the highest rates of loyalty and 'stickiness'
of any social network with active inhabitants (900k) 56 hours
per month”
