In June 2009 we collaborated with the Centre for Food Policy in the School of Community and Health Sciences at City University to develop an online micro-module on sustainable development. The aim of the module was to introduce the subject of sustainability to all University students and staff members. We approached this design task by carrying out various user research activities, which led to a number of conceptual prototypes before the final design was chosen and implemented. Discussions with the stakeholders led us to focus on the undergraduate students as our main target audience early on in the process. This presentation lists the sustainability related interactive applications we came across during the research stage of the project.

In June 2009 we collaborated with the Centre for Food Policy in the School of
Community and Health Sciences at City University to develop an online micro-module
on sustainable development.

The aim of the module was to introduce the subject of sustainability to all University
students and staff members. We approached this design task by carrying out various
user research activities, which led to a number of conceptual prototypes before the
final design was chosen and implemented. Discussions with the stakeholders led us to
focus on the undergraduate students as our main target audience early on in the process.

This presentation lists the sustainability related interactive applications we came across
during the research stage of the project.

lessons while you have fun in the city you get to run.

A brief history of how the rapid advances in GPU technology have allowed film makers and designers to create high end visual effects using accessible computing technology, and how this has lead to the normalisation of VFX in low to mid-range video productions. Touching on software design & development and visual effects processes, the talk will take the form of a brief introduction, software demonstration and examples and Q&A session, examining both backend and front end design considerations.

Wearable Tech refers to electronic devices worn on the body. Almost all devices released to date are in the form of rubber fitness bands or smartwatches, both worn on the wrist. Whilst in its infancy, Wearable Tech has some innovative potential uses. Imagine being able to control any device in your home by the snap of a finger; unlock your door, car or computer just by touching it; be alerted if your stress level, heart rate or blood sugar level is abnormal or even allow your doctor to remotely administer medication if he sees your vitals drop. We’re on the cusp of a new wave of electronics which will re-define the way people use technology. But fundamentally, people need to want to wear these devices. Whilst Samsung and Apple will no doubt take care of the early adopters and technology advocates who care about functionality and convenience, the fashion conscious consumer has yet to be accounted for. This is the gap in the market that Kovert will exploit through being not only a wearable tech company but also a fashion brand.

This talk is about how, as Designers, can we move beyond the need to design a screen into everything and embrace physical interactions? Now computing is becoming ever more ubiquitous & entwined into our lives, surely an acceptable solution isn't to cover our world in icons & screens. There is an emerging trend of beautifully crafted products that are becoming the face of complex systems, yet they have no screen at all and still provide a rich suite of interactions that are easily accessible by the user. What tools are available to us as Interaction Designer’s to give us the courage to step away from our wireframes & start designing beautiful, engaging physical interactions?

The idea of 'designing for users’ is most appealing until business reality hits home: what the users want is work to discover, not what the Product Owner had in mind, what the competition is doing, too hard to build, and so much more. UX is often called at the last minute, in the hope that miracles can happen, “can you add some ux there, it’s not doing terribly well” being an oft-heard preamble to a conversation that’s likely to tumble down and capsize hopes and dreams. The practice of UX requires to support business reality whilst catering for, and sometimes defending users. I will share with you how I've ported my UX knowledge in the teams I've worked with to ensure UX doesn't become the costly harbinger of bad news, enemy of design, arch-enemy of tech and general spanner in the works. I’ll explain what worked and didn't work, the appropriate pace to grow UX in any environment and why HCI academics are the best card in my pocket.

Science Fiction can be source of inspiration when thinking and designing UX. From the icon gestural interface of Minority Report to the use of PADDs in Star Trek, writers and film makers have been lucky enough to come up with ideas that are both creative and realistic. This talk with cover a few examples as to how science fiction predicted current technology and behaviours, but also how to choose the right technology to draw inspiration from. The talk will also cover techniques to help get creative through the power of future thinking

We can no longer predict how people are accessing our websites now, let alone in a few years’ time when the technology people use to access the web will inevitably diverge even further and perhaps in ways we haven’t even considered yet. Rather than seeing this unpredictability and lack of control as a problem, we should embrace these ‘known unknowns’ and the inherent flexibility of the web. Put simply, responsive web design is about being more flexible and assuming less about our users, from how they’re accessing our websites and what technology they’re using to their environment. This talk will discuss the four tenets of good responsive design: content parity, performance, future friendliness and accessibility against a backdrop of Matt's experiences designing and building responsive websites over the past 3 years with plenty of useful tips and takeaways along the way.

What are the advantages and challenges inherent in working with children in the design process for creating games or apps? How do you stop them getting bored, and get useful information? This case study looks in detail at a project that tried to do just that, and provides some handy tips at the end. The case study builds on the speaker's dissertation, Designing applications for children, that was submitted as part of the Masters course in Human-Centred Systems at City University London in September 2012. For the dissertation, she worked with children aged 4-5 years old to design an iPad application to learn the names and sounds of the letters, and to read and spell simple words.
