HCI Videos
Overview
Videos are an excellent learning and inspiration source in HCI. Unlike text, video is extremely well suited to illustrating interactions that are highly visual and that unfold over time. They often capture subtle interaction details that would not be written about. Unlike software and demos, videos can still work many years later.
The various links below are to collections gathered by myself or by others. I often draw from these when teaching, and to show others prior work that has been done before.
