The slides from my talk on how Interaction Design can be inspired by Music Technology. I presented this version at London IA event at Sense Loft on 11th January 20112. I have tried to insert urls from the various videos on the slides themselves to help, but it doesn't replace the experience of being there - sorry.
Apologies for the recruitment plug. Yes it is genuine, but I forgot to take it out. Will try and upload a newer version if I get a chance.
