This document discusses a research project called "Screens in the Wild" that aims to integrate public screens into urban spaces in a way that regenerates communities. The project involves designing and evaluating experiences on 4 connected screens in London Borough of Waltham Forest. A cross-disciplinary team from UCL and Nottingham University will take an iterative and longitudinal approach to understand how screens can be used to engage communities and address social, spatial, technical and interaction issues. The goal is for screens to become embedded into the fabric of urban life and for local communities, especially children, to feel ownership over the experiences.

Editor's Notes
- -experimentation -failure Making - This more like a russian approach – some work some fail but ultimately
- Going beyond local interaction, Urban Screens are becoming networked (and increasingly connected through audio and video technologies), allowing new possibilities for social interactions and emergent encounters to arise [5]. Some projects have suggested using these screens to augment the connectivity of remote communities using videoconferencing technologies
- -questions can only be answered together
- Our research takes a targeted and longitudinal approach in order to understand a complex range of social, technical and interactional issues. In five work packages, we will address the following project objectives with the overall aim to shorten the adoption of technology life-cycle: OBJECTIVES Public experience: how the public interact around and through the connected screens; how different social groups appropriate technology under different spatial conditions. Technical aspects and design of interaction space: explore the impact that various interaction modes have on the public experience. Editorial input and management: how screen managers can perform management of access, and filtering of content that will promote community empowerment and engagement.
