This Happened Talk Online

A video of the talk I gave at the first 'This Happened...' in Bristol is now online. This happened is a global network of events focusing on interaction design


In this public talk I introduce and discuss the background behind 'The Question', the theatre project I developed the Haptic Lotus for. In particular I used this talk to discuss the chronological development of the project, from my undergraduate interest in haptics to the electronic adaptation of children's games as a way of achieving embodied interaction in a cultural setting.

This is the first public talk I have given where people had to pay an entrance fee (for 3 talks in total). Hence, I felt that the pressure was on to be entertaining (technical details were therefore minimal).
