How to Proceed with ParallelTalk 202301

• As a premise, I have a strong motivation to proceed (blu3mo)(blu3mo).

• However, since there are no specific tasks, I get overwhelmed by other tasks.

• So, I want to think about how to proceed.

• What do I want to do?

  • I want to create a communication tool that focuses on “synchronicity” and aims to find a way of time sharing between synchronous and asynchronous communication.
    • Basis: Proposal for Non-Turn-Based Communication with Voice
      • I’m starting to think that it doesn’t have to be limited to voice.
    • A position that replaces Zoom
      • The determination that “communication environment/mechanism can be improved from the current state.”
      • The main purpose is “discussion” (blu3mo).
  • I want to create something with a philosophical background (blu3mo)(blu3mo).
    • Based on information philosophy, phenomenology, systems theory, and communication theory
      • What does “based on” mean? (blu3mo)
    • It would be very interesting to do it based on the concept of Polymorphic Reality - Towards a Smoothly Connected Subjective Metaverse.
    • I’m not sure who would benefit from this, but at least I find it enjoyable.
      • I have a longing for this (blu3mo)(blu3mo)(blu3mo).

      • @blu3mo: I want to implement a communication tool that smoothly shares time while having a lens to see the world through phenomenology and systems theory. (I’m not sure if thinking about these theories is really helpful for creating something, but at least I want to do this.)

• What specifically am I going to create?

  • If the scope of the application is too broad, the purpose might become unclear.
    • It’s good to have a broad scope, but I want to clarify the purpose.
    • It would be interesting if it could be used for classes, meetings, and casual conversations.
    • National Diet and other communication systems are really inefficient.
      • Well, maybe they are more like shows/rituals.
  • This also has a business perspective 20230129 Ito’s Zoom.

• I want to involve people.

  • Who?
    • 20230105 Ito’s Zoom might be of interest, depending on the future flow.
    • I think Mr. Nishimoto might be interested in the theoretical aspect as well, so maybe he would be interested in this.
    • I wonder if u7693 and kota_yata might be interested.
      • I’m interested (u7693)(u7693)(u7693).
    • I also want to find people interested in this at Columbia.
  • Why?
    • I want to discuss various aspects of communication with people.
    • Since it is assumed to be used by multiple people, I don’t think “the best communication environment I came up with” will work well.
    • Involving people will help the project progress.
      • It will also provide motivation and pressure for me.

• How should I proceed?

  • I feel like I want to try presenting a poster at CHI or CSCW.
    • However, I feel that it would be boring to just end it as research.
  • Business?
    • At the moment, I don’t have a clear vision for generating income from this.
      • I can’t see it either (tkgshn)(tkgshn)(tkgshn).
      • This is where anything is possible if there are users.
    • It doesn’t seem easy to develop a business that solely relies on toC SaaS.
  • If I continue developing it as a personal project and have a feeling that I have invented something amazing, I might shift towards starting a business.
    • I have doubts about whether I can continue the development as a personal project.
      • Well, you could say that if you have time to think about those doubts, you should just proceed.
    • In the short term, participating in conferences could be a goal (blu3mo).

• Well, for now,

  • Let’s create a prototype and do Articulation of Thoughts 2022 - A Discussion on Polymorphic Reality, and then think about it.
  • With those, I can gather people, consult, and consider expansion.
