No matter what is said by many about Microsoft’s products currently on the market, when it comes to concepts that are revolutionary in their very nature that are combined with extremely flashy and cool prototypes, Microsoft has always been in front of the industry as the indisputable leader, and this presentation is worth taking a look at.

The latest really cool next-generation prototype out of Microsoft Research to be shown to the public has integrated a home office environment and combined it with the wonders of interactive wall displays, a Microsoft Surface and a digital assistant guide (DAG), with a voice that will remind many of past classic science fiction movies about the future.

Team Altman Look at Two Awesome Post-It Notes Videos:

As always enjoy, share and what have you created with post-it notes?

Video 1: Deadline Post-It Stop Motion

“This is my senior project at Savannah College of Art and Design. Where my idea comes from is that every time when I am busy, I feel that I am not fighting with my works, I am fighting with those post-it notes and deadline. I manipulating the post-it notes to do pixel-like stop motion and there are some interactions between real actor and post-its.”– Bang-yao Liu

Video 2: Extreme Sticky Note Experiments

Winner of a 2009 Webby Award and People’s Voice Webby Award!

“Fritz & Stephen, the madmen behind the Extreme Diet Coke & Mentos Experiments, now cause chaos in the office with over a quarter of a million sticky notes! From waterfalls to wheels, all this craziness is made out of nothing but sticky notes — the zigzag pads made from pop-up dispensers.

From a simple cascading pad to 40,000 sticky notes falling from the ceiling, this video uses 280,951 sticky notes in less than 3 minutes. And don’t worry: they can be reused! And when they’re beyond repair, we make sure to recycle them (or use them the normal way!).”
