Interetsing set of presentation slides (PDF) well worth a look, though I wish we had more of the narrative to tell us what's going on. There's three major parts. The first deals with models, and specifically a pattern of increasing utility, where technology progresses from substitution to augmentation to modification to redefinition. Good set of examples. The metaphors section is weakest, looking at 'the lively sketchbook' and 'the curiosity amplifier'. The idea of flow, in the third segment, is the most interesting, looking as it does at workflows through various technologies. I don't think anyone has done flow well, but the presentation hints at possibilities. The whole presentation should have been on flow, in my opinion.
