Eduardo, I don't believe there is a "single" focus for IxD at this time in history. I think for some their practice does point to the moment of interfacing between digitally enhanced systems and human beings and there is no denying that. For others the focus might be more broadly associated with the behavior of products and systems and their interelationship to/with the behavior of human beings. This is more where my practice and teaching has led me. It is about designing the behaviors of systems so that they map against the behaviors of human beings, BUT also about designing the behaviors of systems so that they encourage behaviors in human beings. (i.e. facilitate change).
So in a way behavior is our medium as Robert Fabricant put it in Vancouver last month. -- dave . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
