Very pretty, but not usable. Imagine how tired your ARMS would be after just a few minutes using this. We use keyboards precisely because we can rest our wrists, and only have to move our fingers through very small distances. Keyboards WORK. This is pointless - the lava lamp? Big deal! What purpose does it serve? The photographer's lightbox is a complete mess - who wants their images to be in a big mess like that? Where are the picture names? Date created? Size (in kb).
Epic fail.

what a shitty idea. Think about all the damn finger prints on that screen. A BETTER idea - a neural interface.

this was amazing. I like the scalable keyboard. but can the virtual keyboard be programmed to modify itself to correct for ergonomic concerns... either manually or automatically? greast presentation
