Zusammenfassung
The paper describes the idea and the structure of a mobile information system under development in the HIPS1
project that allows for supporting nomadic activities. Nomadic activities are a widespread class of human activities.
Many activities are distributed in time, space and social groups. In contrast to print media till now electronic
information and communication media did not support nomadic activities. The worldwide Web, wired and wireless
connectivity to networks, and small mobile devices now allow for supporting nomadic activities by information
and communication technology to an extensive extent. The paper describes ideas for the application of
technological potentials for art excursions as an attractive class of nomadic activities. For the fit of user interests
and needs adaptation facilities are described, to reflect the current user's local position (contextualisation) and
interaction history (individualisation).
