Scott and I had an interesting chat today about the possibilities of metadata. Like Marc pointed out in his talk at UCLA last Thursday, metadata is both underutilized and lacking in standards, but the benefits of integrating automatic data abstraction into our workflows offers more than just increased efficiency, it offers us fresh perspectives on the virtual and physical objects that we manipulate. Imagine an augmented reality system that automatically catalogs objects then allows the user to annotate it with personal notes.
