The Interaction Museum

First Interaction Museum Symposium - Paris, 17-18 June 2005

The First Interaction Museum Symposium took place near Paris in June 2005 (see the announcement).

We started by presenting the Interaction Museum project and its current state. Here are the background documents and the handouts of the presentations (PDF):

• Handout (9.4Mb)
• Overview (13.4Mb)
• Web Pages (2.2Mb)
• Graphic Design (1.3Mb)
• Architecture (5.5Mb)
• Sessions (11.6Mb)

Then each of the four groups created two video prototypes: one illustrating the perspective of a user of the Interaction Museum, the other illustrating the perspective of a contributor. Click on one of the snapshots below to see the videos (Quicktime format). The whole process for creating these videos was captured on the Symposium Wiki (which also contains the above documents and more).
