welcome to the human media lab blog

The Human Media Lab is one of Canada's premier media laboratories. Its mandate is to develop disruptive technologies and new ways of working with computers that are viable 10 to 20 years from now. We are currently working on the design of Organic User Interfaces (OUI), an exciting new paradigm that allows computers to have any shape or form through flexible and other non-flat display technologies.

HML Designs Singtel Experience in Singapore

May 30, 2013

The Human Media Lab has developed an immersive interactive Natural and Organic User Experience for the Singtel Mobile Phone Flagship store in Singapore, in collaboration with Frog Design. Watch above as users use remote gestures via the largest Kinect fusion array in the world (10 units) to fly through Gigapixel imagery of cities around the world on a concave screen 14 m in circumference. Cities are selected by touching a spherical multitouch globe first pioneered at HML in 2008.

today's politics is inherently corrupt. perhaps it has always been, but there used to be a feeling that politics could change the world.
