The Lumitouch system consists of a pair of interactive picture frames. When one user touches her picture frame, the other picture frame lights up. This touch is translated to light over an Internet connection. We introduce a semi-ambient display

Senseboard is one facet of our using tangible media for manipulating abstract information. It allows the user to arrange small magnetic pucks on a grid, where each puck represents a piece of information to be organized, such as a message, file,

Tangible Viewpoints is a system for interacting with a character driven narrative. The different segments of a multiple point-of-view story are organized according to the character viewpoint they represent, as well as their place in the overall
