As computing becomes more ubiquitous in our objects, designers need to be more aware of how to design meaningful interactions into electronically enhanced objects. At the University of Washington, a class of junior Interaction Design majors is exploring this question. These pages chronicle their efforts.

Karin & Kristina // Knolling a Dinosaur!

Looks like we can put our fun purchase from Value Village to some good use! Extracted from the insides of a dinosaur, we're thinking that the motor, on/off switch, speaker and lights can later come in handy. We were so surprised by the number of screws that were actually keeping this creature together and moving! Also, we learned that one tiny chip that is specifically embedded with the cries of a dinosaur had to be made first in order to connect it with the speaker; What a task that these separate chips are having to be made for all different types of animals!
