Abstract

"What you see is what I think you see" is a property that can help technology support realtime interaction between physically separated users. The WYSIWITYS property is a natural consequence of adhering to a physical world metaphor. However, WYSIWITYS can be applied to systems that are not perfect adherents to the virtual world model. SharedARK, a distributed, animated, multi-user application used primarily for testing collaborative microworlds, serves as an example of such a system. SharedARK is a networked computer-based system, but it has been supplemented with audio and video links, and the objects in the world have been given the ability to make sounds. All of these elements are used in such a way as to provide WYSIWITYS properties for SharedARK users.
