We have decided on a scenario that follows an individual working at an architecture firm.

1 The scenario begins with Ted working on a file with a coworker, Bob. This demonstrates how files become associated with location, time, and people.

2 Next, Ted is taking a site photo with his smartphone with a coworker, Lisa. This demonstrates the same action in the first scene with a different device.

3 Ted gets to the office the next day and opens his computer where he hot corners to the home screen of cartesian.

From there he is able to easily access the file he was working on yesterday as well as related files.

4 Ted needs the photo he took yesterday and finds it by tweaking the contextual markers changing the location from office to site and adding Lisa.

He finds the photo and places into the file.

5 Ted is at home, goes to the home screen of cartesian and clicks on a movie he didn’t finish the previous night. Ted is now being an Unhappy Hipster watching Netflix on his computer and eating dinner.

He gets a call from Bob about the file they worked on separately the day before, but now needs to combine the file to send to the client.

Ted goes to the hot corner calling up cartesian and sees the priming corner, clicks on it and finds the file and “sends” it to Bob.

Better Images to come..
