Laquo; Morph - Nokia's Nano phone concept. What not to take through Airport Security ». March 24, 2008. The future of marketing and advertising etc. Good thoughtful post from planner Paul Isakson. Of course experience and relationship is the space where folks like IDEO and Engine are implicitly playing, even if they're talking explicitly about product and service innovation. As Engine say - Better Services, happier customers. Speaks nicely to this blog's 'moving from décor to core'. Been a long time.

Laquo; Quick trip: Nokia flagship and Apple store experiences. The future of marketing and advertising etc. ». March 01, 2008. Morph - Nokia's Nano phone concept. Intriguing product-centred nanotech powered concept device called Morph. From Nokia / Cambridge Nanoscience Centre. Currently featured in The Museum of Modern Art Design and The Elastic Mind. Exhibition in NYC. The whole concept reminds me of what the boys and girls at IDEO might have concocted. Nice. Check out the video here. 10:56 AM in mobile.

Cyclists may legally be able to make left turns on a red light (makes complete sense, but then Im a cyclist), I catch a Discovery Channel documentary. I read about this in Alex Frankels Clocking In which I reviewed here. Great book. Joe. Was even checking it out as Id added it to our library. Anyway, I digress. For instance, their freight aircraft landing at Worldport perform a continuous descent. Morph - No...

Laquo; March 2008. June 2008 ». April 29, 2008. What not to take through Airport Security. As part of a Service Prototype, we'd asked our model-maker to make up a buzzer. This was so that in a service we were prototyping, we could test certain scenarios that would otherwise been initiated by technology that we didn't yet have in place. We were faking it. We tried shouting, we tried a whistle - but we wanted a buzzer. Switch, battery, buzzer, case and tape. It all worked a dream. 02:37 PM in Prototyping.
