After 2 years that we started talking about Kinetic interaction, somebody in the US is starting using the same terminology and concepts.
Cheskin published a podcast on Kinetic Computing which is a recorded panel from at the SXSW'08 Interactive Conference in Austin, TX. The topic of the panel is described as follows:
Paradigm busting interfaces are bringing new life into computing and entertainment, enabling people to interact with digital tools in more natural and intuitive ways -- with Intention and Motion as the key platforms for communication. Harnessing the explosion of the emerging digital experience that is changing our lives. 3 Takeaways:
1. The ethnography of evolution: What's changing about people to make this possible?
2. How people will adapt to and adopt these new interfaces and what that means for the people creating the technologies.
3. Influence of the "new" early adopters - from 20 somethings to 60 somethings; and from gamers to paraplegics.
Unfortunately, people form US never look at what is going on in Europe and they missed our work on Kinetic User Interfaces.
I believe that we truly anticipated this shift.
