The World is our Interface
This workshop offers a hands-on exploratory playground where we rapidly prototype what we think will be the next evolution in human interaction with technology. It starts with a discussion about the history of interfaces and human communication and follows with selected examples of how to design post-screen, drawing some specific cases from Virtual and Augmented Reality.
The workshop will be fun and interactive, so bring your imagination and use the world around you. At the end of the workshop, you should be able to walk away with a low fidelity prototype of your choice.
Please have with you, ideally, some kind of device and a selected prototyping tool of choice (Marvel, InVision, POP etc.)
