Only a child, or a fool, yells at the little people on the TV--"Don't go in there," "Look behind you," etc. But now technology is helping us "break the fourth wall" and interact with things on screen via a physical interface:
Lyndsay Williams of Girton Labs has built this prototype "SenseSurface" system which allows you to attach real, physical knobs to a flat-panel display. The magnetic knobs are measured by a sensor plate in the rear, letting you turn the knob itself to control the software dials.
