The Old Interface Culture's Black Sofa becomes a new gaming interface. A second hand gaming console is connected to capacitive sensors that enable the visitors to play the game *Hello Kitty World* in a new mode. Three players sit down on the sofa. They have to practice coordination by verbal and nonverbal communication to move quickly in order to control the character's actions in the game. More visitors gather round the sofa to watch their performance and the game itself, which is displayed on a screen in front of them. The sofa interface is decorated in Hello Kitty style.
