A workshop exploring what new technologies such as Wii, Microsoft Natal and sensor based electronic solutions mean for designers. What are our new materials, what do we need to learn and/or change in the way we work today? The workshop took place at the conference From Business To Buttons 2009, and was held by darja isaksson.
