Abstract: Synthetic evidential study ( SES ) is a novel approach to understanding and augmenting collective thought process throught substantiation by interactive media. It consists of a role – play game by participants, projecting the resulting play into a shared virtual space, critical discussions with mediated role-play, and componentization for reuse. We present the conceptual framework of SES, initial findings from a SES workshop, supporting technologies for SES, potential applications of SES, and future challenges.
