Interaction Design lessons from Science
Fiction<http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1z6iqhmh6jq1vagl91d807454nnlgvba7krc3n6g8>explores
how sci-fi and interface design relate to each other.
*Join Chris Noessel*<http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1zpjltsqhvef2rkg3pdch17b0v68b3lss5pv8ccjg>as
he describes the model that traces lines of influence between the two,
