Hi, we’re Geek Physical.

We like to play with technology. We use technology to create interactive experiences, installations, happenings, or playful rendezvous. We combine Interaction Design with Experience Design with Engineering to invent incredibly memorable experiences.

We like to help people realize their ideas and goals by exploring unconventional, unexpected uses of technology to create interactive experiences. We create memorable interactions and design to get it right through prototyping, user testing, concept development and learning from each step along the way.

As part of a series on the "Future of Health", PSFK interviewed GeekPhysical about our work with biometrics, sensors and how we felt about the world of sensing technologies as it related to UNICEF. "We think it could also be vital to have health workers aware of their stress levels without having to think about it or analyze themselves."

As part of completion for a Masters in Interaction Design, Vanessa set up a table at the Business to Buttons Conference in Malmo. The booth was made to show how easy tangible computing and rapid prototyping can be! We made a simple interaction, a transistor intertwined with a LED, hooked up to a 9v, powered by people acting as the human resistor. It was a beautiful little interactive exhibit than literally ANYONE could make and even the Swedish news got excited about.

"The small LED Matrix displays can be mounted on both male and female doors, and the image shown can be switched as folks enter and leave. Needless to say, such a setup caused quite a bit of hilariousness / confusion."
