“We live in a world where there is more and more
information, and less and less meaning.”
Jean Baudrillard

• Question the ways we currently think about location.
• Illustrate the complexity of location context.
• Start establishing some theoretical models.
Why are we here?

1. The parts of a discourse that surround a word or passage and can throw light on its meaning
2. The interrelated conditions in which something exists or occurs.
Webster says
![Page 14: Finding the There There: theory and praxis of location-aware systems design](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022110115/54c73dbc4a795907688b45ae/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
“The notion of “context” has been adapted to computing from its original use referring to
language, which is reflected in the structure of the word itself: con (with) text. In using language we
produce a text, either written or oral, intended to be interpreted by one or more other people. That text is not an encapsulated representation of an intended
meaning, but rather is a cue that allows the anticipated audience to construct an appropriate
meaning.”

“Context is an operational term: Something is context because of the way it is used in
interpretation, not due to its inherent properties.”

language-like data structures, but in something more earthy: the
tuning of basic responses to a real world that enables an embodied
organism to sense, act, and survive.” Andy Clark

"What we have forgotten in modernity [...] is that force comes
from subtraction, power from absence. [W]e are immersed in the opposite illusion, the disenchanted
illusion of the proliferation of screens and images. Now, the
image can no longer imagine the real, because it is the real."

"Today abstraction is no longer that of the map, the double, the mirror, or the concept. Simulation is no longer that of a territory, a referential being, or a substance. It is the generation by models of a real without origin or reality: a hyperreal […] The desert of the real itself."

"We have thus moved beyond the theorization of our mobile devices
