Hi There,

I'm pleased to announce the launch of the IxDA Media Library, a place for
video and audio of IxDA events around the world, including the Interaction
conference and local events.

A few caveats: We haven't migrated your IxDA.org accounts to this system, so
to comment, you'll need to use OpenID, or create a new account on this
system. Once you've done that, you'll have an account you can use on the
other systems we build, including the Board Blog, and the next rollout of
our discussion platform. We welcome suggestions on an elegant UX'y way to
migrate our passwordless authentication system on IxDA.org to a traditional
username/password system. Also, you'll notice that the system doesn't match
the rest of IxDA.org. We're working on that :-)

On to the Good Stuff!

In our first Interaction '09 video, Robert Fabricant talks about Interaction
Design as a practice beyond just computing technology. He gives examples of
Interaction Design as far back as ancient history, all the way to a
humanitarian project underway today. He shows that Interaction Design's
primary medium is behavior, extending far past the high technology world
into the realm of human behavior and relationships.
