The Future Interface: Design to Make Technology Human


  • Charles Babbage designed the first computer between 1833 and 1871.
  • Then came Apple in 1984
  • We forgot that information exists across systems, not just within them. And because we are so addicted to what happens inside screens, we forgot how to be human.
  • New interfaces are increasingly designed with human habits in mind.
  • When we can design across systems, devices will evolve or disappear. We will not stop consuming content, rather consume it in a way that suits human behavior, not the other way around.
  • Blind people can now read with their finger, an example of the human body as an interface, assisted by technology.
  • Audio is an exciting medium to deliver content because unlike visual information, it doesn’t take up space.
  • Not only should the interface be part of our existing environment, the content should react or be generated by our environment. Welcome to contextual content.
