I’m pleased to announce that I’ll be presenting at Mobile Camp NYC on Saturday 19th May in New York City.

I’ll be presenting some history and context around Physical Hyperlinks and Touch-based interactions.

This week at the Hybrid World Lab at Mediamatic I have given five presentations related to NFC, physical, tangible, social interactions and design methodology.
Here are the slides for each of those presentations. They are PDF files.
Designing between things, places and people
An introduction to some of my work and current work in the Touch project. Looks [...]

This is a design brief, one of many themes that the Touch project is investigating.

In London, Tokyo, Seoul, Hong Kong and elsewhere the ‘swipe’ or ‘tap’ is already a common interaction for paying and entering in a wide variety of public situations. In the near future the mobile phone and RFID card may be used [...]

This is a design brief, one of many themes that the Touch project is investigating.

RFID and NFC can be used to provide access to places in the same way as traditional keys or tickets.
This brief emerged from a frustration with existing access control systems. For interfaces of such potential simplicity they are often frustratingly difficult [...]

This is a design brief, one of many themes that the Touch project is investigating.

RFID is being used for an increasing number of interactions with everyday infrastructures. From travelcards, keyless entry, passports and micropayments to content downloads, smart posters and digital wallets on mobile phones. Attempts have been made to represent these interactions graphically from [...]

The Touch project has been investigating applications and services for RFID and NFC since 2005. Although RFID and NFC have been much hyped, the technologies have been relatively little explored from a design perspective. We have discovered many opportunities for original explorations, studies and design projects.
At the beginning of 2007, as we started to [...]
