For those of us designing Tablet based stuff, this might be really interesting:

Bumptop is a new interaction model for working with objects that we
keep on our desktop.

I find the "pliability" demonstrated in the demo to be quite high, and
the engagement factor of manipulating objects in such a "real" fashion
to also be high.

Check it out! And be sure to watch the whole thing. I didn't start
really liking it until I got towards the middle to end. It feels
obvious in the beginning, but explodes in directions I wouldn't have
thought of.

I also appreciate their use of research artifacts (photos) in the
presentation to demonstrate key points.

It might seem too literal, but as an exploration of IxD I really like it.
