Omar Rizwan on communicating with demos

Omar has worked at Dynamicland and built experimental computing interfaces like Hijack Your Feed and TabFS.  We talked about:

• Communicating computing design principles through demos, rather than manifestos.
• Embodying computational objects as things the user already knows how to manipulate, like files, screenshots, or pieces of paper.
• What it takes to make a computing environment complete enough to live on.
• Molding a temporary user interface that fits the current task.
