« Interactiving | Main | Solar warming » Everyware Adam Greenfield's new book Everyware is nearing release, and he'll be talking about it as part of the Digital Convergence track at SXSW Interactive. The book is Adam's take on ubiquitous computing, which he discusses in an interview at Boxes and Arrows. “Everyware” is computing that is everywhere around us, yet is relatively hard to see, both literally and figuratively. Broadly speaking, it is what you get when you take the information processing we associate with the personal computer and distribute it throughout the environment — embedding it in walls, floors, appliances, lampposts, even clothing. I also use the word to refer to the relatively novel interface conventions everyware requires: gestural, tangible and haptic interfaces, and to some extent, voice recognition. jon posted this at 1:12 AM |
