Interactions in Context-Zero: Towards Conceptual Adaptation through the Izbushka Agent

The evolution of technology and its integration into the many facets of modern society has created new forms of communication and interaction. Aspects of the “Information Age” have been infused into our daily routines in a way that has fundamentally altered our modes of thinking about such technology and interaction itself, requiring changes in the way we structure and use information. It is important to understand how we have been impacted by technology and how these new mediums are understood and conceptualized as our perceptions have changed. Technology often creates a sense of immersion during its use as we project conceptualized versions of ourselves into these spaces (Dede, 2009). Many virtual and artificial spaces create environments that bypass the ABSTRACT
