[IxDA Discuss] History of Interaction?

[Scott Berkun]

I highly recommend Marc Rettig's presentation on interaction design history
http://www.marcrettig.com/writings/rettig.interactionDesignHistory.2.03.pdf.
It's not Silicon valley centric like Moggridge's Designing Interactions, but
instead is a highly editorialized and broad take on the entire rise of tools
and machines (yep, it includes punchcards).  I've never seen the
presentation live, but the slides are pretty damn good.
