International academic conferenceThe transformation of visitor's experience of the world expositions: A study of the history of World EXPOs' Mobile Apps
The transformation of visitor's experience of the world expositions: A study of the history of World EXPOs' Mobile AppsIn refereedOKADA,Tomoyuki2023/11/27~The 16th International Telecommunications Society Asia-Pacific Regional ConferenceRoyal Orchid Sheraton Hotel & Towers, Bangkok, ThailandThe world expositions have long been stages on which brand-new inventions of media are exhibited. For example, there was the telephone, invented by Graham Bell in Philadelphia, in 1876, and the phonograph, invented by Thomas Edison in Paris, in 1889, and so on. In the case of mobile media, the “Wireless Telephone," which is known as the first mobile telephone handset in history, was exhibited by the Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Public Corporation at the World EXPO Osaka, in 1970.
In this study, I would like to present a consideration of the history of official apps in each world exposition from EXPO 2012 Yeosu (South Korea) to EXPO 2020 Dubai (United Arab Emirates). Therefore, I will examine an aspect of current world expositions that has been transforming with developments in information and communications technologies (ICT), especially in mobile media, as evolving platforms for information exchange.
Recently, Many sociologists argue that mobile media brought a doubling of place and time. Those phenomena are called as follows; Second Offline by Tomita, Doubling of Reality and Overlap by De Souza e Silva, Moores and Milgram. It means the transformation of everyday lives, work styles, playing games, learning, tourism etc.
Smartphone apps are also widely used at World Expositions. How has this changed visitors' experiences at World EXPOs? In this report, I examine the changes in the visitors’ experience brought about by their use of official apps for International Expositions by comparing their functions. At EXPO 2012 Yeosu (South Korea), where the first-ever official World Expo app was introduced, map and navigation functions were the main features, but at EXPO 2015 Milan (Italy), a guide for event schedules was incorporated, and Expo 2020 Dubai (2021-2022, United Arab Emirates), special apps for people with disabilities and adventure game apps were also provided as official apps. In addition, Business apps, available only to Premium Experience Season Pass purchasers, could access officials from official participants and sponsors, allowing visitors to use them as a business platform.
Therefore, I can say though the official apps of former EXPOs were mainly for navigation of the sites and sending information, they constructed a "platform" for entertainment, business, learning, etc. both sides of offline and online.

International expositions (expos), which inspired the opening ceremonies and presentation of medals at the Olympic Games, are considered to be the prototype of national media events. Based on interviews with expo organisers, this study investigated differences in the ways Japan, China, and South Korea utilised information and communication technology (ICT) in their respective 2005, 2010, and 2012 expos. Analysis suggests that the ways these countries organised their expos reflected their respective ICT policies. As such, international expos of the twenty-first century can be understood as national media events of a new era.

PapersMedia and Technology: the innovation and popularization of web and mobile communicationUnrefereedAcademic JournalSingle-AuthorOKADA Tomoyuki;Journal of Mass Communication StudiesNo.70. 55-662007/1/30~The most significant media changes of the last decade were in the appearance and popularization of the Internet and in the extension of cellular phone functions. In this paper, I will firstly indicate how telecommunication and broadcast has been theoretically positioned in the process of their convergence and then touch upon the fact that media theorists saw the maturation of web communication and the development of print journalism to BBS and then blogging, accompanied also by the enlargement of conventional mass media such as TV-broadcasting to enable active participation by the viewer, as coterminous events. I will then argue that under the spread of cellular phones and the innovation of their handsets and services, a fulltime intimate community has been constructed as a deeply intimate area neither restrained by place nor physical space. It is likely that various media communication services will soon be offered targeting this intimate sphere and the small public sphere it provides on the web. SNS (social networking service) which has seen increasing popularity in recent years is one such example, and apprehending this phenomenon is one of the most important issues which media theories must address.

It describes how keitai cultures developed out of the fertile ground of youth street practices and visual culturesand a history of text messaging that extended back to youth pager use in the early 1990s. Drawing from the interviews with youth as well as historical materials, this paper illutrates how Japanese youth cultures pushed mobile media in the direction of personalization and multimedia functionality, presenting an alternative design paradigm that differed from the original thrust toward networking business institutions.

PapersSpecifics of Medium and Interpersonal Relationships in Using Mobile Telephone: The results of a survey on university studentsIn refereedAcademic JournalCo-authorOKADA Tomoyuki;Matsuda Misa;Habuchi Ichiyo;2000/3/25~In this paper, we aimed to investigate how university students use mobile phones. Particularly we have focused on personal relations and communications.
Major findings are as follows: (1) more women use mobile phones more than men. Moreover, users are sociable and have more a monthly allowance and more interests in new media. (2) Men tend to use the mobile phones as an exclusive line to connect. Women tend to use the phone as a form of security. (3) Text service, like a pager, is often used by women, and they can adapt media to suit the occasion. (4) Heavy users are more sociable, and are felt more likely to have more face-to-face communications than before getting the mobile phone. In addition, they tend to select ”friends” by using the mobile phone. (5) With answering machines users select the call, have contradicted tendencies: one is more sociable character; the other is to have a limited sphere of their acquaintances. Moreover, they fell that they are use to the mobile phone. (6) In caller-ID service, people who use it and select the call, are more dependent on a mobile phone and feel far more psychological stances to her/his family. (7) It is important for users to keep a company, and necessary to keep friendships, but they would like to take exception from troublesome of others.
