Links from both Dunne and Raby and the Dublin Sciency Gallery websites about the recent exhibition called "What If.." curated by London based designers Anthony Dunne and Fiona Raby. The exhibition, held in the Dublin Science Gallery, explored how machines and humans interact, and questioned things like, what might happen in a society where machines can read your every emotion.

Dunne and Raby are also interesting also in their older work as they explored the relationships between humans in objects in their work like the "nipple chair" (pictured below) where they created a chair that responded to the electro magnetic waves around them. The idea was that the user was made aware of the electromagnetic world present around us all the time.

NoteSlate tablet

Maybe relevant to personalisation but it is an interesting device
that offers the traditional handwriting look and feel.
It can be your own notepad, message board, sketchbook all in one.
The focus of this tablet is to combine simplicity with technology and
offer users a more expressive and personal experience.
