With Senseg touch screens come alive with textures, contours and edges that users can feel. Using Senseg technology, makers of tablet computers, smart phones, and any touch interface device can deliver revolutionary user experiences with high fidelity tactile sensations.
Senseg enhances touch interfaces with high fidelity tactile effects, a new generation of “haptics.” Whether organizing a desktop or navigating twitter feeds, selecting text or finding hidden objects, tactile sensations make users more productive and applications more engaging. With Senseg application developers have precise control over the location and type of effect users experience. Senseg effects have a very broad dynamic range, both in the type of effect delivered and its intensity. Every application can benefit from using feel to guide and reward user actions, whether it is used to minimize visual focus required for accurate operation, or to enrich a multi-modal experience incorporating graphics, sound and feel. Senseg haptics are often used in combination with graphics or/and sound for a more engaging and complete sensory experience; other times Senseg effects are used by themselves, such as ‘tagging’ the location of hidden objects that can be discovered only by feel, or to reinforce user actions. Senseg patented solution creates a sophisticated sensation of touch usingColoumb’s force, the principle of attraction between electrical charges. By passing an ultra-low electrical current into the insulated electrode, Senseg’s Tixel™, the proprietary charge driver can create a small attractive force to finger skin. By modulating this attractive force a variety of sensations can be generated, from textured surfaces and edges to vibrations and more. Unlike effects created by mechanical vibration and piezo solutions, Senseg is silent. Moreover, with Senseg application developers have precise control of the location and type of effect users experience. What’s more, Senseg technology scales from touch pads, smart phones and tablets to the largest touch screens without increasing manufacturing complexity.

Politicians are under suspicion, not only by the citizens that we see as being astonished by their manouevers to curb a crisis for which they do not stop trying to put the blame on us. But in reality, those that truly keep them under strict surveillance, are the markets, loaded with unlimited power which allows them to overthrow legitimate governments, imposing in their place a race of technocrats of suspect past, in the service of the crisis.
Thinking about these things, luzinterruptus took it to the streets of Madrid, on the 19th of November, a day of reflection before the general elections, in order to present a simulation of the surveillance of politicians, with the aim of generating debate or simply a thought among the people who strolled through the streets on their way back home. For the installation Politicians under video surveillance, the luzinterruptus crew carried 75 fake security cameras with them, of the type which detect movement and possess an intermittent red light and trained them on the advertising used by the parties in their electoral campaigns, observing from close up the faces that were touched up for the photos, of the politicians elect. “It was an interesting night and as always, people asked us… did we hope to have made them reflect for a moment about this alarming situation of the harassment of democracy.”

Dominic Wilcox has created five new watch sculptures on themes of protest, surveillance, money and football. Dominic Wilcox is a British designer who creates unique and innovative objects, drawings and installations. His work has been exhibited and published extensively worldwide.
"I spend most of my time attempting to reveal the hidden surprises which are embedded within the banal, everyday things that surround us. I'm interested in certain areas of contemporary art, craft and design and my work moves between many different areas of creative expression. Some of my ideas develop from observations on human behaviour and I express them through the objects I create. I also experiment with materials to find surprises that can't be found simply by thinking with a pen or computer."
The watch sculptures combine mechanical wind up watches with customised model figures to create animated 'moments'. The new series includes a recreation of the UC Davis pepper spraying of students incident, a protester kissing a soldier, CCTV cameras and photographers, an elderly woman made to stand by oblivious sitters and a footballer holding a pound symbol trophy aloft while 3 WAGS fight for his attention.
Each watch sculpture is an edition of 1. Love and Protest, UC Davis Protest and Captured are on display at La Scatola Gallery until the 10th of January. 1 Snowden Street, London, EC2A 2DQ, UK

Comfortably Oblivious and The Beautiful Game are on display along with The Sitting Man and Unrequited Handshake at Phillips de Pury until 31 January 2012. 45-47 Brook Street at Claridge's, London.
