cool is what stands up – what makes you take a notice and appreciate something beyond the norm. When you see a product or a design or creation and your mind just screams at the want of it – or the appreciation to understand it more fully – that is cool.
Been working lots lately on multi-touch technology (both on MS Surface, iPhones and other projects).
Just thought it would be interesting to jot down my list of favorite multi-touch technology visions as seen on film.
Minority Report (duh!)
James Bond Quantum of Solace –
District 9
Iron Man 2

Looks like a nice app to try out. Done by Ocean Observations.
Tried out the Penki iPhone app released by DenstuLondon on the AppStore. The awesome project by conceived by BERGLondon and done in collaboration with Denstu. Awesome stuff!
More here on my Flickr set.
Many interesting points raised here. Very inspiring talk on a subject I have been working alot on lately. There’s so much here that we haven’t explored in our Medica Helping Hands concept at Ergonomidesign. And so much that we’ve addressed in the concept that hasnt been thought of or demonstrated by anyone yet. The field is wide open!
Following the huge success of their Mag+ concept (done in collaboration with BERG London, which later went on to become the Popular Science+ app for the iPad) Bonnier are back with yet another awesome video – this time called News+. News+ is Bonnier’s take on the future newspaper and they’ve written much more about it on their site.
While I love the PopSci+ app alot, I blog about this video here because its another example of crisp, simple, coherent storytelling about a concept. It’s something I am very passionate about trying more of for myself and videos like these are a huge inspiration. I think there’s an unmistakable hint of an inspiring Timo Arnall aesthetic that’s found its way to these videos. 
Why do I blog this? – Because I’m inspired by alot of ideas that died without proper trial on this user experience. I wanted to preserve the best parts of it for posterity before it faded away in the dying pixels of fickle public memory.
