The idea here was to look at three scales or ranges in which ways we interact with the world: experience/large, organize/medium, precise/small. <a href="http://studiolab.io.tudelft.nl/static/gems/forinspirationonly/chapter3.pdf" rel="nofollow">Chapter 3</a> of my thesis talks about that setup specifically. I especially like the comment of one user of the table projection saying it was the first computer interaction that didn't require him to put on his glasses.

A nice way of framing these issues.

As proof, simply walk into a public restroom these days and wash your hands or get a paper towel without ever having to touch anything." Or equally often, you're waving and wringing your hands around in a foot-scale space, failing to switch the tap on or keep the dryer running long enough... which perhaps makes many of these machines Pads rather than Dots. “Dots too have arrived.
