The contemporary burgeoning usage of digital movies, photos, audio and text, their distribution through networks both electronic and physical will be considered in the context of a convergence of these media with a popular interest in personal and community history and identity. An interactive multimedia prototype Pathscape will be described and evaluated; and further practice-based research approaches to author-defined storage and retrieval systems will be described.

Paper presented at the ACM Creativity & Cognition conference, Goldsmiths College, London, 2005.

The paper was written by a colleague at the University of Technology Sydney in response to the Pathscape prototype, a subsequent seminar and encountering the thoughts of Gerhardt Fischer on the notion of metadesign.
