Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Fond memories are kept in one's mind and are used to reminisce from time to time. They provide not only a life of pleasure to those who possess them, but also bonds that tie people who share them together. Utilizing this property, we propose an environment where people can share their feelings for fond memories, as well as empathize and communication with each other. We think old popular songs common to the users' younger days are good triggers for fond memories. We are developing a prototyping system modeling a music box. Opened by one or more people, the box starts to play a common song from their youth. The box chooses the songs based on their ages and ranks them based on the activeness to their conversation.
