I do like futuristic looking demonstrations of technologies that will play a big role in the coming years. One demonstration that I found absolutely fascinating is a Photoshop multitouch image editing one. Working with small screens and a mouse plus keyboard combination is the current state of the art when it comes to image editing. It becomes problematic in a number of way including working in a team. It is also not natural to use a mouse to draw and edit images. Multitouch image editing uses a natural flow and offers a bigger detailed view of the image at hand.

You might know the Swedish game producer Remedy who created the blockbusters Max Payne and Max Payne 2. Remedy are working on a different game for the last 18 months called Alan Wake which features a highly dynamic world and lots of interactivity. The story takes place in the idyllic town of Bright Falls and the player takes command of the best selling author Alan Wake who escapes to this small town to recover from the mysterious disappearance of his fiancée. In Bright Falls Wake comes face to face with his darkest nightmares.
