#2*not new (upwards of 7 years old) but since there was lots of interest in Pushing-Pixels FUI designer interviews (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25525290) thought would share this old gem - huge database/collection of FUI, been shared around here on a few different URLs over the years.

#3Most futuristic movies seem to not care too much about UI and just throw the standard cliche hacker-like interface, although it might be just a few seconds but an interesting and different UI can be a really nice touch

In films the UI is a storytelling element as much as a camera angle.
What you show and how you show it is conveying something to the audience.

i thought this website is about literal UI on screens, in films?

#8Wow, that MSFT Future Vision video took me back. I used to watch it when I was 12 years old and was so amazed by it.

It is! And what the production designers put on screens is part of what communicates with the audience. Maybe the audience needs to get specific information from the UI in order to understand something in the story. Maybe the audience needs to understand that the talent is having a certain kind of interaction that gives them a particular kind of information, or allows them to control something. In all those cases, the UI is part of how the creative team tells the viewer what's going on in the world of the film!

#10These types of UIs can be inspiring in the same way sc-fi novels can be.
I've always thought that i3wm and other tiling window managers let you get into the spirit of some of these futuristic UIs, especially with a large 4k+ display.
