Computer-Supported Cooperative Work: Technology for interaction Doerry, Eckehard & Douglas, Sarah, Looking for Trouble: Communicative Breakdown in co-present & technology-mediated interaction?
In pairs of biology students learning together, communication failure occurred in 4 ways: verbal turn-taking, cursor turn-taking, topic breakdown and Reference breakdown. Explains that non-verbal cues in the peripheral vision provide critical information in face-to-face situations. In audio/video-access, the need to focus either on the task or the team-member?s face gives a schizophrenic quality to the visual information. It was also difficult for the students to see details of the partner?s non-verbal communications
Gartner J.& Hanappi Egger, E., in ACM Interactions, March/April 1999.
Compares group-support software on multiple workstations vs. facilitation with LCD projection vs. facilitation & with facilitation with no technology. Authors support the flexibility of using a single computer & projection for the directness & portability.
Poltrock, S. & Engelbeck, G., Requirements for a virtual collocation environment Examines how groups of office-workers interact through formal meetings in rooms and informal interactions within common spaces.

Rijken, Dirk, ?Information in Space: Explorations in Media and Architecture? in ACM Interactions, May/June 1999.
A wide-ranging article exploring the similarities and differences between built architecture and virtual environments or information space. Looks at interesting metaphors (such as temporary spaces created by a VIP entourage), touches on how real life is being changed by information. Talks about understanding architecture through the context in which it is situated.
