A Year for Mindful Technology
•
307 gefällt mir•55,697 views
Technology can make us feel like we have monkey minds—restless and distracted. We can try to be mindful in how we use it, but it is impossible to really unplug. What if technology could meet us halfway? Rather than nudging us down the purchase funnel, perhaps there could be space for reflection. Rather going to great lengths to get our attention right now, what if tech companies could take the long view. Rather than persuading us to engage more often, maybe our favorite apps could be designed to help us live balanced lives. Our desire for balance can inspire a new approach to design. Let's let 2016 be about designing technology for well-being.

5 visual marketing trends you should check in 2016
The document discusses the benefits of meditation for reducing stress and anxiety. Regular meditation practice can help calm the mind and body by lowering heart rate and blood pressure. Making meditation a part of a daily routine, even if just 10-15 minutes per day, can offer improvements to mood, focus, and overall well-being over time.
5 Golden Rules of UX
The document outlines 5 golden rules of user experience (UX) design: 1) Design for the user, not yourself; 2) Design needs a goal such as to delight, engage or convert users; 3) Keep designs simple; 4) Usability is more important than aesthetics; 5) No design is permanent and designs should be treated as hypotheses to continually improve the user experience. The rules are presented by Melissa Perri at an H3 conference.
Lean Product Management - ACE 2015
This document discusses the differences between traditional and lean product management. Traditional product managers focus on determining new features and requirements, while lean product managers focus on discovering customer problems through feedback. Lean product managers run experiments to solve problems, lead implementation of successful experiments, and manage a problem roadmap. The lean approach prioritizes customer needs over internal requirements, uses data from experiments over assumptions, focuses roadmaps on problems not features, and encourages collaboration on ideas.
28 Pitching Essentials
If you are like many people, even the thought of delivering a speech in front of an audience will get your palms sweating. The fear of public speaking ranks high among the most common phobias, and for good reason: most of us approach the situation with the wrong mindset, which in turn makes us live out our worst fears in a public forum.
As Michael Parker notes in IT’S NOT WHAT YOU SAY: How to Sell Your Message When It Matters Most (A TarcherPerigee paperback; on sale January 2016), our fixation on the content of our words – and not the presentation of ourselves – is what brings us down. Once the Vice-Chairman of London’s Saatchi & Saatchi, and one of the world’s most experienced advertising pitch men, having made more than 1,000 pitches in his successful career, Parker has learned first-hand that an effective presentation, a job interview, or even a speech at a wedding hinges on our ability to portray ourselves as passionate, relatable, and collected. But, if we are focused on what we say, and not how we act, we will fail to persuade our audience.
Applied in the boardroom, at the pulpit, or even in conversation, these tenets will help you present better in any situation.

Why UX #FAILS (with notes)
Presentation for STLUX (with notes). Sorry this is not the entire talk but I'll provide a better one later.
From Paths to Sandboxes
This presentation shares the journey I’ve been on, from trying to shape and influence a user’s path, to creating sandbox environments in which people can play and amaze us!
______
Designers are trained to guide users toward predetermined outcomes, but is there a better use of this persuasive psychology? What happens if we focus less on influencing desired behaviors and focus more on designing ‘sandboxes’: open-ended, generative systems? And how might we go about designing these spaces? It’s still “psychology applied to design”, but in a much more challenging and rewarding way!
In this talk, I’ll share the journey I’ve been on, from trying to shape and influence a user’s path, to creating these sandbox environments. You’ll learn why systems such as Twitter, Pinterest, and Minecraft are so maddeningly addictive, and what principles we can use to create similar experiences. We’ll look at education and the work of Maria Montessori, who wrote extensively about how to create learning environments that encourage exploration and discovery. And we’ll look at game design, considering all the varieties of games, especially those carefully designed to encourage play — a marked contrast with progression games designed to move you through a series of ever-increasing challenges, each converging upon the same solution. Finally, we’ll look at web applications, and I’ll share how this thinking might influence your work, from how you respond to new feature requests to how you design for behavior change in a more mature way.
Best Practice For UX Deliverables - Eventhandler, London, 05 March 2014
The document discusses best practices for UX deliverables. It emphasizes that UX deliverables should be adapted to the intended audience and add value. Deliverables should have a clear narrative and tell a story. Creating visually engaging deliverables that keep the audience's attention is important, especially when presenting to clients who may not have a background in UX. The document also stresses that UX is about collaboration between different roles and that effective deliverables facilitate common understanding between teams.

Jesmond Allen introduces himself as the UX Director at cxpartners and discusses how product managers (PMs) and UX designers can best work together. While their roles overlap in understanding users and requirements, UX focuses on design while PMs focus on the product vision and roadmap. For effective collaboration, UX designers should ask questions to fully understand the project brief and deadlines, while PMs should provide clear goals, share existing research, and communicate regularly with stakeholders. The key is open communication between PMs and UX designers.
Designing To Learn: Creating Effective MVP Experiments - Lean UX NYC 2014
This document outlines Melissa Perri's presentation on creating effective MVP experiments. The presentation covers:
1. Defining what an MVP is and why they are important for validating assumptions before building fully.
2. Guidance on setting up MVP experiments, including defining the customer and problem, investigating assumptions, designing tests, measuring results, and iterating.
3. Different types of MVPs (e.g. concierge, wizard of oz, landing page) and when each is most appropriate.
4. Adapting MVP experiments based on customer feedback and constraints.
5. How MVP experiments can be incorporated into agile development processes using short sprint cycles.

3 Things Every Sales Team Needs to Be Thinking About in 2017
Thinking about your sales team's goals for 2017? Drift's VP of Sales shares 3 things you can do to improve conversion rates and drive more revenue.
Read the full story on the Drift blog here: http://blog.drift.com/sales-team-tips
Detox Your Product
The document outlines 8 ways to "detox your product" rather than detoxing oneself from technology overuse. It suggests ways for product designers to 1) defuse extremes on their platforms, 2) debug endless loops, 3) de-numerate by reducing notifications, 4) de-botify by reducing automated interactions, 5) revive co-presence by supporting human connection, 6) reinstate pauses and friction in user experiences, 7) reclaim conversation by promoting meaningful discussions, and 8) reaffirm empathy by cultivating compassion between users. The overall message is that products should be designed to encourage balance with technology rather than addictive usage.
The Future of Emotionally Intelligent Machines
Artificial intelligence seems poised to remake what it means to be human. We struggle with how human to make our machines, at the same time as we struggle with how to maintain our own humanity. Without emotion, we won’t even get close. The convergence of affective computing and AI will bring us toward an era of emotionally intelligent machines. And, even more important, may lead us to a more humane future for humans, too.
When Your Internet Things Know How You Feel
The technology we use every day knows a lot about what we do—what we click on, where we go, and who we follow. But so far, it doesn’t know much about how we feel. That’s changing.
Emotion-sensing technology is moving from an experimental phase to reality. Maybe, our Internet things will start to understand us, cultivating emotional connections and picking up on social cues. What does it mean for how we design technology? This talk, grounded in the latest research and case studies, shows how designers can create rich, emotional experiences for the next wave of emotion-aware technology.
Design like a Human in the Age of Algorithms
Algorithms are shaping our experience every day. Our Facebook feeds, our Spotify playlists, our Amazon recommendations are creating a personalized window into a world driven by algorithms. As design becomes less about a screen and more about augmenting humans with extended capabilities, new ideas, even potentially more emotional awareness, we will need algorithms. But humans are complicated. Humans change all the time. Algorithms have a hard time with that. Design thinking can bridge the gap between machine learning and human intelligence.
Finding Our Happy Place in the Internet of Things
In the future, technology will work together and make decisions for us, though it may not truly understand humans. Currently, technology can have negative effects like distracting and isolating people. However, if designed well with a focus on empathy, emotional intelligence, and human well-being, technology could have positive impacts like strengthening relationships and empowering personal growth. Creating technology with emotional sensitivity, transparency, and a wellness model may lead to a more human future.
Designing for Happiness: A Positive Future for Technology—SXSW 2016
We design technologies to make life easier, to help tiresome chores go faster, to add value to people's lives. We strive for seamless interaction. We obsess over the details. We believe that we are making the world a better place. And yet we don’t really talk about happiness.
What does is mean to design for happiness? Based on a combination of design research and data science, this proposed SXSW 2016 session will explore what makes people happiest when they use technology and what we can learn from that to design for positive outcomes. Come away from the session with new inspiration and proven techniques for building happiness into the experience. - Panel voting at: http://panelpicker.sxsw.com/vote/47497
The Science of Happy Design - SXSW 2015
So much attention is focused on how technology makes us sad, lonely, addicted, lazy, and maybe a little stupid. At the same time, we know that technology is actually making all of us feel smart, whole, and connected. What if we could intentionally design technologies for positive emotions and positive outcomes? This is at the heart of happy design.
Learn how to measure for the one thing that matters - happiness - and how to identify the five elements of positive design.
Generation Z and the Future of Technology
GenZ is the largest generation yet and they are truly digital natives. The attitudes and behaviors of Zs will have a huge impact on the future of technology. Grounded in data from hundreds of online research sessions, diaries, and interviews, learn what Gen Z really does online and the ways it will change how we design the experience.
Be Data Informed Without Being a Data Scientist
You are a designer, or a coder, or a manager. Maybe you are even a unicorn. But you are not a data scientist. Still, you want to get more out of the mountain of data you have about your site or app to create a better user experience. No problem. Learn a process of data thinking that will help you to analyze, visualize, and really use data about your website or app without all the bothersome math and python programming.

5th LF Energy Power Grid Model Meet-up Slides
5th Power Grid Model Meet-up
It is with great pleasure that we extend to you an invitation to the 5th Power Grid Model Meet-up, scheduled for 6th June 2024. This event will adopt a hybrid format, allowing participants to join us either through an online Mircosoft Teams session or in person at TU/e located at Den Dolech 2, Eindhoven, Netherlands. The meet-up will be hosted by Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), a research university specializing in engineering science & technology.
Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.
-An interactive brainstorming session to discuss and propose new feature requests.
-An opportunity to connect with fellow Power Grid Model enthusiasts and users.
