Just saw this very cool project presented at eComm by Stefan Agamanolis from Distance Lab.
“People lost track of time, they called for 5 minutes and thought they were chatting for 30 minutes. The nature of conversations was more creative, callers visited a lot of topics. They also gestured more, even with their legs.”
Stefan presents this project in a larger design initiative he’s dubbed slow communication – communication technologies explicitly designed to harmonize with natural human pace and sensitivities. It’s similar in spirit to some of the slow computing ideas I was tossing around a few years back.

Luis Blackaller and Kyle Buza just released the E15:oGFX site, with software downloads, tutorials, and documentation. They’ve made it incredibly easy to get up and running. Nice work dudes.
Noah showed this to me today. It is quite something.
My friend and Taco Lab accomplice David Merrill gave a fantastic talk at TED last week on the Siftables project that he and Jeevan have been pursuing. The video went up today. Congrats Dave!
