The Naked Interface—Liberating Brain, Body, and Digital Interactions - IxDA (New York, NY USA)

Throughout the electronic age, people have become accustomed to interacting with digital media indirectly, mediated through screens and peripheral devices. But now, as digital technology becomes invisibly embedded in everyday things, the ‘feeling’ of everyday things is also increasingly becoming embedded in digital technology.

In many senses, physical objects are becoming more important. In an immediate way, they can help us define new systems of relationships with digital information. Luke Williams, Creative Director at frog design, examines how perceptions and gestures formed through our experiences with physical products can effectively bring liberty to the relationship between brain, body, and digital media interface.

Luke will cover:

• how patterns and archetypes from product design now frame new ways for people to orientate themselves around information;

• the principle of stimulating one sense through another to create multi-sensory interactions; and

• new developments at the collision point between ‘real world’ objects and ‘digital interfaces’ — the touch screen.
