UI lit by the lights in your room

Bob Burrough, a former Apple engineer, demos a user interface that is lit by the lights in the room. The interface chrome reacts to the real ambient light and the device's orientation, giving it a physical, 3D look.

HN people use it as the counterexample to boring flat UI, a working demo of interfaces that respond to real light, and cite it when Apple moves toward glassy designs.

“Dynamically lit, 3D interferences for the win!”
