Interaction design projects. Designed the orientation and touch sensitive alarm clock “Quattro” and a water-driven analog input device.
“Egg” ambient display for schedule coordination
From the “Strangely Familiar” show at IDI Ivrea. Keep track of appointments (through varying glowing intensity), notify colleagues if you’ll be late through tangible interaction (shaking the egg.) For keeping groups in sync in the moments in between for
Portfolio of Matty Sallin - interaction design, web design.
Cool projects including remote presence frame, heartbeat pulsating lamp and bacon smell alarm clock.
Book as interface for navigating, bookmarking and annotating the radio spectrum.
Seems like a crazy co-opted metaphor for interaction.
