In this video, 3 industrial designers and 1 design researcher from Smart Design make something with littleBits.
littleBits is an opensource library of discrete electronic components pre-assembled in tiny circuit boards. Just as Legos allow you to create complex structures with very little engineering knowledge, littleBits are simple, intuitive, space-sensitive blocks that make prototyping with sophisticated electronics a matter of snapping small magnets together. With a growing number of available modules, littleBits aims to move electronics from late stages of the design process to its earliest ones, and from the hands of experts, to those of artists, makers and designers.

In this video, we demonstrate the use of littleBits in the design and prototyping process of a coffeemaker, from the interaction aspect, to aesthetics, behavior, and overall experience.

The Upgrade! partners with the 2008 World Science Festival. Dr. Steven Kurtz, the artist accused by the US Department of Justice of "bioterrorism" stemming from his use of scientific materials in his award-winning art practice, and science writer Carl Zimmer for a panel discussion on the ethics of scientific and creative research and freedom of speech. This month's Upgrade! New York is a collaboration between Eyebeam and the World Science Festival, with additional support from the Berkeley Center for New Media. Videography: Jason Jones.
