Paléo: a collaborative system for social conciliation

Published:27 April 2013Publication History

ABSTRACT

Québec City's Saint-Roch District (Canada) is going through an urban and social transformation period. Over the years, the various efforts aimed at revitalizing the district contributed to the creation of a significant divide between the different social classes. The solution we devised, Paléo, is a social impact outdoor interface aiming to bring together the people frequenting the district. By placing users in a collaborative situation toward a common goal, the search for warmth during the cold Québec winter, our system intends to stimulate the evolution of reciprocal perceptions, and thus, improve the quality of the experience in the district.
