Can aesthetic values of ancient cultures that stem from the close
bond between man and nature and from man's faith in the sacredness
of life, shape modern tools in the current era of globalisation?
Can
we achieve flows of innovation from the traditional to the modern,
rather than the reverse: developing new products for developing
cultures?
Can
the world's traditional craftsmen and artists, who could be seen
as the world's first user interface designers, also shape the forms
of new user interfaces?
