Abstract

CodeZebra Operating System is an advanced web based visualization tool that enables conversations between different individuals and groups on the Internet. CodeZebra employs animal print metaphors and other organic patterns. This refers to the technological jungle in which human survival is increasingly reliant on communication skills. It suggests the need for socio-ecological responsibility in the development of technologies. CodeZebra's role-play and aesthetic approach is meant to encourage cross-disciplinary dialogue, creativity and play, especially between artists and scientists.
