!alone (not alone): social gaming at UoM bus stops

Developing a wireless node to be installed on all the University of Michigan Blue Bus Stops for collaborative gaming. Involves design of a collaborative game using a reduced simple interface, audio channels for content distribution and design of a cheap, replacable device with wireless capabilities. It is being designed to work in conjunction with the Magic Bus Project and will feature a live website showing real-time activity on all the nodes.
The project was initially a proposal for the GROCS 2007 projects. It is currently being funded by Prof. Paul Resnick. The initial proposal can be found here.
