Perhaps the most striking characteristic of almost all the WILD applications is that they augment or amplify an existing physical space with information exchanges (Engelbart, 1962); the space the students are engaged in during their activity includes the devices, but is not limited to the space within the screen.
WILD technology is radical and revolutionary because (unlike personal desktop computers) it creates the communication and computational conditions that make collective performance with representations both possible and meaningful in the aggregate.
Once the WILD conversational acts are captured and indexed in the flow of networked message transactions, the teacher and learners themselves may reflect on the patterns of their interactions.

For Debra Loewen, founder and artistic director of Wild Space, collaboration is not a new concept.

Performing in untraditional spaces is nothing new either, considering she once choreographed dances that were performed on river barges and on top of public buildings.
Yet for Loewen, there's something extremely unique about her latest effort, a provocative three-day performance, "Seduction of Space," that for the first time, mixes the talents of 13 Wild Space dancers with the remarkable vision of six MIAD-based artists.
