where is Interaction Design going?

The media lab and IDII (interaction-Ivrea) are definete examples of where the future of “iD” is going, i believe… ITP nyc, RCA, and a few others are following this path, though I am still confused about where the industry is headed…

"Interactive Environments " is very intriging, though i still see that a huge part of interaction Design…

Is iD a path that mainly ID(industrial Design) firms are adding to their services (IDEO, Ziba, Antenna, etc) or are all firms competing for this division, such as architectural firms, OMA, Rem, Pentagram, etc.?


Perhaps there is no right or wrong answer… i guess I am just trying to see who else in the “ID” world (coroflot) is all hyped up about “iD” as I am. It would be great if this "Interaction Design " post grew, as I have a strong belief that the future of interactionDesign will play a large role in IndustrialDesign. (relating products into environments more, creating services, and calculated experiences)
