Abstract EN
Short message service (SMS) is extremely popular today.
Currently, it is being mainly used for peer-to-peer communication.
However, SMS could be used as public media platform to enhance social and public interactions in an intuitive way.
We have developed BlogWall to extend the SMS to a new level of self-expression and public communication by combining art and poetry.
Furthermore, it will provide a means of expression in the language that children can understand, and the forms of social communication.
BlogWall can also be used to educate the children while they interact and play with the system.
The most notable feature of the system is its ability to mix up and generate poetry in multiple languages such as English, Korean, Chinese poems, or Japanese “Haiku” all based on the SMS.
This system facilitates a cultural experience to children unknowingly, thus it is a step into new forms of cultural computing.
