A few weeks ago Adobe release a video called "the future of creative applications". It's one of those "vision" videos that shows you how the world is going to be, and in this case, how the design tool scenario is going to be. To be honest, I believe it's not that far away. The tools that they show are amazing, extremely creative and very technological, they are truly advanced.
Most of those new tool have one tendency, to free you from "devices" and allow you to design with your hands, your tools, and I think that is a huge step back... and that is good!
We need to go back to using our hands, our motion, our limbs as part of the design process. This posture of sitting down, moving only our hands (and in a very minimal way) has restrict us to work in the way the machine needs us to work. It's time for a change, it's time for the future to look a lot like the past again. To enhance our natural capacities and not to restrict them into a machine-driven-shape.
Using our body, being able to move around to design, to bring gesture to our movements will make our work more organic, more intuitive, more holistic.
I truly believe that the future should look a lot like the past in the ways the artists moved in order to create art, and technology should be there to enhance human behavior.
It's an exciting time, looking forward to it.
