I am very excited about the course I will be taking this summer at Domus Academy (Formerly, Ivrea). I wonder why we don't have more courses such as this in the US.

Workshop and intensive course on design of innovative consumer electronic tools in the context of mobility (ubiquitous computing, mobile phone, locative media etc.), considering both tangible qualities (physical manipulation, gestures, etc) and immaterial interactions with social networking functions and services.
