SpaceClaim's Multi-touch 3-D Modeling Software Video Teaser (with music by Kevin MacLeod)
YouTube Description:
"A preview demonstration of modeling in 3D using a SpaceClaim's prototype multi-touch user interface that will be added to SpaceClaim this fall. Also includes clips of ANSYS Workbench, Blue Ridge Numerics CFdesign, and Bunkspeed Hypershot, showing some finger dancing that you can do without multi-touch."
At the end of the video:

(I always like product demo video clips that have danceable music with a great beat!)

Mixing Games and Applications - Slides from Danc, of Lostgarden.com; links to related resources
Spencer Riley, of TeacherLED, sent me a link to a presentation by Danc, of Lostgarden.com that I thought I'd share. The target audience for this presentation is interaction designers and beginning game designers. It is worth looking at if you are interested in developing/purchasing/using interactive applications, engaging educational software, edutainment, or even web-based business apps.

Along the way, we'll discuss a new philosophy of interaction design that is already creating a major competitive advantage for innovative application developers"
