He hasn’t yet posted slides or notes, but you can get the gist of the talk from this blog post and these notes. The main thesis addresses bringing game mechanics into [...]

  • Explaining User Experience Design to High Schoolers (and other new audiences)

    Updated: 2010-03-12 22:10:21
    How do user experience designers tell their story in a relevant, meaningful way, to audiences who have no exposure to user experience design (UX)? UX practitioners are keenly aware that everything we use in our lives was designed by someone. But, outside of our industry (and related ones), most people aren’t aware of the many [...]

Wandering through a museum sharing thoughts about what we see is a big part of how I experience art and history. I also love to learn as much as possible about what [...]

  • A product’s experience goes beyond User Experience

    Updated: 2010-03-02 06:16:25
    I’m dropping the word “user” from user experience. Flame on. First, I’m not suggesting anyone forget the user – the person using the thing – from our consideration. Quite the contrary. I believe that the user should always come first in any design discussion, even initially above business needs. What I am proposing is that today’s consumer electronics [...]

  • Apple iPad and the 3 Waves and 5 C’s of Computing Use

    Updated: 2010-03-01 04:55:47
    An admitted oversimplification, I still find it helpful to think of the history of computing use to have three primary waves. In the 1st Wave, the use was straightforward: Calculation. Whether to figure out trajectories of artillery, to support Manhattan Project, or manage astronomical math, it was largely a matter of numbers in and numbers out. Photo [...]
