DESCRIPTION
This is a presentation on augmented reality that I gave at the Creative Cape Town section of the recently held Design Indaba. The presentation is best viewed with a talking head in front to explain some of the slides. However, to try make it more understandable I have inserted some explanation on several of the slides. Of possible interest about the presentation is that it had to be delivered within 10 minutes because it was being filmed for YouTube. Knowing that the average online video view is no longer than two to three minutes I designed the presentation to contextualize the content and provide an "executive summary" of the entire presentation within three minutes. I then spent the remaining time fleshing out the points. This is an example of the fractal brand strategy that we are developing at Sagacite Brand Agency, where I work.TRANSCRIPT

is Cape Town a design cityIn what way could design make a difference to the Cape Town central city
(related the presentation to the topic of the conference. argued that relevant information delivered at the right time is an important design component of a city)

Augmented reality deals with the combination of real-world and computer-generated data,
where computer graphics objects are blended into real footage in real time.

Augmented reality is the real-time delivery of digital information to enhance or enable a
geographical / physical experience
(expanded on the previous definition to make it broader and include delivery via channels such as sms and bluetooth)

design needs to exist in all the layers, in the reality as well as the
virtual and in their combination
