<strong>Aaron</strong> <strong>Marcus</strong>, The Past 100 Years of the Future, Page 143<br />

Figure: Scene from District 9, 2009
.<br />

The hero of the film, a future immigration official in charge of managing alien beings<br />

held in special camps, is, surprisingly, able to manipulate the controls of an alien spaceship<br />

once he manages to enter it. Somehow, the alien-computer interface is able to<br />

adjust to this strange creature (the human being), in a startling, bizarre example of<br />

superior user-centered design.<br />
