We aim to develop new types of human communications and entertainment environments which can increase support for multi-person multi-modal interaction and remote presence. In this paper, we present an alternative ubiquitous computing environment based on an integrated design of real and virtual worlds. We discuss some different research prototype systems for human to human and also human to animal interactive communication and play. The functional capabilities implemented in these systems include mixed reality, tangible interaction, and ubiquitous human media spaces.
