Audio d-touch “is a collection of applications for real-time musical composition and performance, with very special user interfaces. The collection includes a drum machine and a sampling sequencer, both are controlled by spatially arranging physical objects on an interactive table surface. Each object represents a sound, and its position with respect to the surface is mapped to certain playback parameters.”
Sci-Fi??? No more! You can actually build it!

Awesome! Keep-Us-Busy? A collaboraton between two 3rd year graphic design students, Tom Lovell and Shaun Hughes who made a creative sit-in in a window store for 5 days.
“A shameless self promotion, a way of indulging oursleves in our last 3 months of Uni and having fun. To collaborate, to use words, to interact, not just to design but to create. To be on constant show, to prove to the world that the creative mind is always doing.”

Refreshment served! Ideas! A closer look at creativity!
“One of the most daunting task for a designer is to generate ideas. Sometimes this task is considered a minor undertaking for unknowing people. Why so? Because the results may look convincingly simple. Deceitfully simple. Nada. This is not the case as you may well know.
So how do we in fact become proficient idea generators? First, ideas = creativity. The root of creativity stems from the word creation which is to create from nothing. Nice theoretical assumption. Now what is the practical side?”
