 1: <h2>EDC Remixed</h2>
 2: <h3>Abstract</h3>
 3: The Envisionment and Discovery Collaboratory (EDC) is a collaborative work environment that
 4: has primarily been used to address and create solutions to complex design problems. Notably,
 5: EDC applications have focused on solving urban planning and community issues at large.
 6: However, there lies tremendous potential for this system to be applied to other areas including
 7: problem solving in other domains, creative work in groups, and educational games. This paper
 8: discusses the ideological principles behind the EDC and explores the utility of three future
 9: application scenarios not yet addressed by the EDC.
10: <h3>Future Directions</h3>
11: In this paper we explored three potential collaborative applications of the Envisionment and
12: Discovery Collaboratory (EDC). These included a room layout application exploring a new
13: problem solving domain, an animation studio application fostering creative work in groups, and
14: an Iron Chef educational game. We feel these applications further explore the EDC's potential for
15: copresent, collaborative activities and would be interesting avenues for further research. The next
16: step toward exploring the application scenarios would be to test and refine the designs, 8 using
17: informed participatory design techniques, such as a "Wizard of Oz" experiment, or prototyping.
18: We feel that each of these applications could be implemented in a reasonable time frame and
19: would produce interesting findings through user studies.
