Kolo was a Java-based middleware for interactive artworks, a framework for the collection of sensor data and the control of distributed media devices. And Nebesko was a scripting language for managing a Kolo network’s state.
The research/development team—led by Jeff Burke, Joe Kim, Eitan Mendelowitz, and Adam Pingel—explored how to provide straightforward, low-latency network connectivity and distributed state management among devices. It was used in Ecce Homology, The Iliad Project, Advanced Technology for Cinematography, and other projects.
The concepts and experience of developing and using Kolo have substantially influenced REMAP’s work on the Named Data Networking Project.
