In this paper, we unpack three themes for the multidisciplinary codesign
of a physical and digital meeting space environment in supporting
collaboration: that social practices should dictate design, the importance of
supporting fluidity, and the need for technological artifacts to have a social
voice. We describe a prototype meeting space named inSpace that explores how
design grounded in these themes can create a user-driven, information-rich
environment supporting a variety of meeting types. Our current space includes a
table with integrated sensing and ambient feedback, a shared wall display that
supports multiple concurrent users, and a collection of storage and
infrastructure services for communication, and that also can automatically
capture traces of how artifacts are used in the space.

Ictus supports the study and preparation of musical scores by semi-novice conductors. It does so by representing the complex analytical processes in which professional conductors routinely engage. Through iterative design and prototyping and with feedback from expert conductors, we have developed a prototyped system for use as a learning tool. This paper presents a brief overview of the complexities of the conductor's task, including the difficulties inherent in externalizing it; a description of the Ictus system; and a discussion of some of the feedback and forward-looking issues that have been raised.
