Teleporter is an interaction design sketch by Peter Bennett. It explores how a teleportation illusion could be used to enhance digital communication.

Bennett 1 does pretty cool stuff with stainless steel marbles. Teleportation is an intriguing physical metaphor for representing abstract interactions with digital objects physically. For instance, I could send a message to two people by sending one marble into the teleporter/replicator and see two marbles pop up on the teleport representing my two recipients.
