The HERE/NOW ZONE app acts like YELP Monocle and adds all available information available, based on your location and direction your facing. It's a tour guide with a time travel option.
Open the app and aim your tablet (or phone) and GPS locates you and ID's locations of businesses (i.e.Twitter>), "what we do," "who works here?" "what we're doing now", "who is that singing?" "what buses are coming?"
Side Scroll: Access Historic photos, articles, famous residents, events, film locs, ephemera, and a media zone: breaking news, archived film or radio broadcasts, pop-up "soapboxes" with webcams and audio for artists, all based on location.
Users could ID themselves: [Tom Jordan -Salad Bar Cafe].
A moving wide angle webcam focused on the HERE/NOW ZONE makes people walking around staring at their tablets and pointing look like crowdsourced modern dance. Zone movement sensors add music to webcast based on people movement.
That's all.

This project is made possible by the City and County of San Francisco, SPUR, the Mayor's Office of Neighborhood Services and the Department of Technology
