Usefull resources (NUI, OCGM, Bottom-Up approach, Interactions, ...)

Just a work in progress...

This post contains a few resources related to Natural User Interfaces, OCGM, Bottom-Up Approach, Interactions and more generally to Surface Computing, Multitouch and Gestures systems. These links are a small set of so many resources that fed my thoughts during last years. But filtering is a difficult task so do not hesitate to contact me if you think some others valuable links should really appear in the list.
