    Nokia has released a concept video for their new HumanForm phone – which isn’t so much human-shaped as it is oblong. What’s interesting about it is that the casing is meant to be flexible, and the entire surface is meant to run off of touch recognition, which is fairly rad.

    The video shows off the full range of the phone’s features – gesture interaction, touch-sensitive case, flex controls, electro-tactile “image feeling”, mood recognition, non-verbal communication… I’ll be honest, I don’t know exactly what half of those things mean in a practical sense, but since this is a concept video it’s fair to assume that Nokia doesn’t either. Still, it’s nice to see them make an effort at competing with all the other fancy phones out there.
