ferencing requires that one 'go' someplace; it is not an integrated part of the office itself." The study went on to note that it would be "interesting to explore the possibilities for desktop video in supporting activities like peripheral awareness, chance encounters, distributed meetings, and discussions and envisionment exercises." The researchers of the project noted the importance of media literacy and how participants progressed from computing VS. computing augmented with video and audio. This progression illustrates an evolution "toward a unified field of audio, video, and computing." Finally, the project led the research team to consider whether "awareness of people and activities in a working group had value independent of other mechanisms that might be available for collaboration." In other words, just thinking about co-workers in another area or department might be the first step toward working together; and seeing and hearing them from time to time might stimulate thinking.
