Interface Currents

Large horizontal displays invite for co-located collaborative work such as planning, analyzing information, or brainstorming. However the size and orientation of such tabletop displays can make it difficult to share information within a group. Interface Currents are interface containers that support co-located collaborative work around tabletop displays by providing a continuous flow of information within flexible boundaries.
