@ThreeKProduction Because monitors (flat panel displays) and keyboards and mice are an awful and very uninspiring way of interacting with computers. Here you can already imagine the ways in which it (the computer) can enter the world as an object to interact with. One which allows for mutl-user interaction and collective experience. A much more intuitive and FUN way of interacting with a computer....

This looks like a ball.

@ThreeKProduction

No points on a sphere.

I don't care if it's a year late, it was fucking worth it.

[banders303]

the only thing this would be good for would be Google Earth.

[WickedDragon86]

Its cool but I see this only being used for geography purposes like in classrooms to teach kids about the planets and Earth.
