Thanks to my friend Jonathan Brill for his post about videos from UX Week 08 where he points to two videos you really have to see if you are, as he puts it, serious about multitouch and NUI.The first video is by Darren David and Nathan Moody of Stimulant. It provides some excellent advice about designing multitouch systems.
More importantly is the video of Dennis Wixon, the Usability Research Director on Surface. He provides an excellent analysis of what NUI is, and why its important. At the end he goes on to talk about what comes after NUI, which is XUI or Organic User Interface. It's chalk full of incredibly useful insights and its a video I plan to watch a few more times because its so important.
If you've followed my work prior to multitouch and want to understand why I abandoned 14 years of hard work for a new career in experience design and development, Dennis Wixon's video answers that question. It's because I want to be a part of the next major shift in computing, NUI.
