Description

The purpose of this book was to avail students of the many different reasons and back-stories equated with the advent of interaction design and its effect on our world. Since the beginning of recorded history mankind has desired to keep track of its events and accomplishments and to find a way to properly represent those occurrences to the rest of the world. Now with the use of interaction design and multimedia it has become possible to present the story through a current and evocative platform. As the new generation comes of age a new method is being utilized in all areas of communication. This new generation – Generation i – desires its communication at a different rate than its predecessors. This new Gen-i wants its information Internet ready and interactive. It has become involved in the immediate and it is not going away. Interactive multimedia is here to stay from the halls of famous museums to the conference rooms of corporations to the entertainment centers in most homes. A new vision of information distribution has taken root. The main goal of this book is to help you take your first steps in that new direction. To understand the effects of this new platform and to be wary of its abilities and its dangers. As a friend once said, “no matter how thin you slice it there are always two-sides.”
