<\/a>What if your phone wasn’t a stagnant box with optional vibration, but a mechanism that responded to your touch like a living being? Well, designer Fabian Hemmert<\/a> has created such a phone—albeit in early prototype form.<\/p>\n

<\/embed><\/object> During his presentation from TEDxBerlin, Hemmert demonstrates how simple mechanical functions could add a level of tangibility that’s completely missing from the phones of today. Imagine a moving icon that has a shifting yet subconscious weight in your hand, or an eBook that shrinks thinner as you have less pages remaining.<\/p>\n

Hemmert’s demos are unwieldy, for sure, and I’m not so sure these technologies could be readily miniaturized. But I’d certainly love to watch as someone tried. [information aesthetics<\/a> via Engadget<\/a>]<\/p>\n
