Theme Social Architecture
Title Social architecture for the Masses- lets make it fun!
Abstract
Translating the complex theoretical systems of ‘social networks’, ‘distributed accountability’ and ‘collaborative tools’ into practical solutions for mass empowerment is a daunting challenge.We must create transparent, intuitive tools that have sex appeal and ‘Hip Factor’ if popular culture is to incorporate them into their everyday lives. The process of using the tools must be rewarding!(FUN)
This is the PlaNetWork Presentation Abstract that got us top billing:

Description
The SuperStar Avatar approach puts a friendly face on these rather daunting, intellectual concepts and repackages them in a pop-culture skin for distribution to the masses. It works as both a low tech, analog process (live interaction) and as a knowledge embedded, online technical application which individuals and communities use to assess and manage the flow of their practical and creative ‘data’. It transparently delivers with a familiar, intuitive and experiential interface that mirrors the way successful communities already operate.

We have successfully concluded our play-testing, and are now hosting an emerging experience economy (live time community interaction and exchange) using our functioning online prototype.
We will present how the SuperStar Nation is operating and how the participants are having their needs met by:
· Creating and Assessing their Social Identities
· Creating and Building their communities
· Assessing their practical and creative wealth
· The standards of etiquette for exchanging their ‘wealth’ in live exchange
· The Tools for Maintaining and Sustaining Distributed Accountability
· Scripting their own experiences
