A friend sent me this video yesterday and I must say, I was absolutely stunned. It's by a Barcelona based design group whose mission is to explore the relationships and interactions between people and technology (that subject that I find very interesting) through installations that "merge real and digital into a creative environment where people are invited to touch, play, move, feel as they do in the real world."
This video humanises the user-interface of a multi-touch device (a phone, pda, computer, etc. that allows the user to use 2 or more fingers to interact it) and, to me, raises the question of whether we are more comfortable with our digital social interactions than our real ones. It is made through a combination of realtime video and stop-frame animation which gives it quite a jerky feel, very similar to that of an actual phone or computer (I know that my phone is very much like this.)
