Media evolved from media that can be described as integrated presentation in one form (multimedia), towards embedding the consumer into a computer graphic generated synthetic world (virtual reality), to the consumers' directly exposed to the media in their natural environment, rather than to computer interfaces (ambient intelligence), and will be evolving towards a fully real/synthetic world undistinguishable pure media (biomedia or bio-multimedia). This paper presents a solution for merging ambient intelligence with a mobile environment. Only a distributed intelligent network of interconnected mobile devices and sensor networks can enable the data acquisition, processing, and communication of information essential to perform the highly demanding tasks of an ambient system. This paper introduces the work of the newly established 'New Ambient MUltimedia (NAMU)" research group. The key-idea is the development of the "Digital Aura", a consumer surrounding intelligent digital environment of ubiquitous and pervasive mobile facilities.
