Abstract
The convergence of computer technology, multimedia, and high-bandwidth communication channels challenges our understanding of information technology. Processes of education, training, and entertainment, as well as provision of knowledge, can be envisaged as constituting a common environment of enhanced communication and interaction. Braiding together these disparate strands entails a novel appreciation of both knowledge itself and the learning process. The Theseus system is prototypical of such convergence, demonstrating how the idealist models of knowledge transfer and expertise that have dominated computer design and information systems may be replaced by an embodied model of knowledge and understanding as effective action. Realizing the imperatives for an enabling network system, Theseus allows the expression of personal views and subjective experience, while providing the means of constituting local, regional, and global domains of shared appreciation and understanding.
