Ux professionalismAndy Budd

We’re seeing a potential devaluation of the term UX as lots of inexperienced designers and developers make the slow (and often incomplete) move into user experience. Looking at how crafts transform into professions by charting the history of Architecture, Andy will explain what the discipline really is, how it evolved, and the skills you need to call yourself a user experience designer. Andy will outline 10 key traits of a user experience professional and argue that we need to evolve in order to face the challenges ahead. He will also state that user experience doesn't just belong to one role, but is everybody's responsibility. So you don't have to switch careers and become a UX designer in order to influence a product's experience.

The document summarizes observations from a workshop where design students and faculty were asked to visualize the past, present, and future of design through timelines and diagrams. Three key themes emerged: 1) Both students and faculty see collaboration and interdisciplinary work as important parts of the future of design. 2) Students were more optimistic about technology's role in the future compared to some faculty who saw it as more unknown. 3) Environmental sustainability was a common element included across timelines for both groups.

The ux of user experienceAndy Budd

UX design is all the rage at the moment, but how usable is it as a process? When the top industry experts can't even agree to its definition (or even it's existence) how are you supposed to bake it into your practice, let alone sell it to your clients? In fact should you or your clients even care? In this session Andy Budd will try to demystify some of the rhetoric and dogma floating around about User Experience Design, and explain what should and shouldn't matter to your business, your clients and your day-to-day work as a web designer.

Mobile learning in formal education or: How to train a trojan horseBenjamin Jörissen

Dr. Benjamin Jörissen gave a presentation on how new digital and networked media challenge the traditional linear organization of learning in schools. He argued that schools are based on a "typographic educational culture" that values linear structures to reduce complexity, but new media enable asynchronous, non-linear learning across unified spaces. While schools try to control media and learning, new technologies allow for open networks and boundaries without control. Rather than trying to train this "trojan horse", schools will need to learn how to ride it and cultivate learning in new, non-linear ways.

Social media - a revolution in local government communicationssimonwakeman

The document discusses how social media can revolutionize local government communications. It notes that using tools like podcasting and social networks allows governments to create two-way communication channels with young people to get them involved in issues. While these new methods require time and skills to learn, they can make communications more collaborative and participative by empowering community groups. The document suggests social media will disrupt traditional hierarchies and require new team roles, policies and issues management approaches for governments.

Final draft sr. proj. paperAshley Toups

This document discusses Ashley Toups' senior project on media productions. Toups has loved making videos since childhood and wants to create one last video for her senior project. She discusses the history of video equipment from heavy, separate cameras and VCRs to today's lightweight, integrated camcorders. Toups also covers preproduction, production, postproduction stages; tools for video creation like cameras, software, lighting; and types of videos like informational, educational, and entertaining. She concludes that videos are an effective way to present information compared to posters and she looks forward to applying her research knowledge to her Pineville High School video.

Lights! Camera! Interaction! What Designers Can Learn From FilmmakersAdam Connor

I began college as a film student. I’ve always loved storytelling, particularly visual storytelling in the forms of film and animation. Well-made films show us that they can drive engagement, communicate in subtle ways, change attitudes, and inspire us to try to change our lives. Films succeed in evoking responses and engaging audiences only with a combination of well-written narrative and effective storytelling technique. It’s the filmmaker’s job to put this together. To do so they’ve developed processes, tools and techniques that allow them to focus attention, emphasize information, foreshadow and produce the many elements that together comprise a well-told story. We’re responsible for creating products that aren’t just easy to use, but that people appreciate using. It stands to reason that the methods used in films to communicate with and engage audiences can serve as inspiration for designers. With this presentation, we'’ll revisit the topic of using stories in design and expand on the technical aspects used in film to communicate. We’ll look at some tools used in film such as: cinematic patterns, beat sheets, and storyboards. We’ll consider why they’re used and how we might look to them for inspiration.

The document outlines a student's idea for their film and media production (FMP) project. The student plans to create a film trailer about the keys to the internet. They became interested in the topic after learning that a small number of people hold the physical keys that control the internet. For their project, the student intends to research who owns the keys, how they work, who created them, and their importance. They want the trailer to make viewers realize how much power over the internet and society those few key holders have. To convey this sense of power and jeopardy, the student will employ a dark, dramatic tone and style through coloring, music, and sound effects.

In this presentation Jason connects the world of music technology to professional design practice. He shares some of his inspiration from midi controllers to hard and soft synths. He explores how academia, music technology and the design world can learn from each other. Then he shares some potential trajectories, opportunities and challenges for the future. If you like interaction design, musical instruments and classic synths, you will love this. --------------------------- Jason studied Industrial Design at Brunel University. Since then, his 17 year career in User Experience led him to running regular community events as a local leader for the Interaction Design Association (IxDA) and founding the design and innovation consultancy, Resonant, where he works on physical-digital products and services. When he was younger, he started making music on the Commodore 64, and then on the Amiga with OctaMed. Jason has substituted his lack of musical training with ongoing investments in music technology. He justifies this by connecting his personal passion of music technology with his professional career.

JAIN ARCHITECTURE AND BUDDHIST - Copy.pptprakriti123

Jain and Buddhist architecture have distinct characteristics, yet they share some similarities due to their origins in ancient India. Here's an overview of both: Jain Architecture Jain architecture reflects the religion's emphasis on asceticism, simplicity, and non-violence. Some key features include: 1. Rock-Cut Caves: Early Jain architecture included rock-cut caves, similar to Buddhist caves. Examples: Udayagiri and Khandagiri Caves (Odisha), Ellora Jain Caves (Maharashtra). 2. Temples: Built using marble or sandstone with intricate carvings. Often located on hilltops. Temples follow the Nagara style (North India) or Dravidian style (South India). Examples: Dilwara Temples (Rajasthan), Ranakpur Temple (Rajasthan), Palitana Temples (Gujarat). 3. Manastambha (Pillars of Honor): Tall, free-standing pillars, often found in temple complexes. Symbolize Jain spiritual ideals. 4. Towering Shikharas (Spires): Unlike Hindu temples, Jain spires are often clustered and highly decorative. Buddhist Architecture Buddhist architecture evolved from simple stupas to grand monasteries and temples. 1. Stupas: Dome-shaped structures containing relics of the Buddha. Example: Sanchi Stupa (Madhya Pradesh). 2. Rock-Cut Caves: Monasteries and chaitya halls carved into mountains. Examples: Ajanta and Ellora Caves, Karla and Bhaja Caves (Maharashtra). 3. Viharas (Monasteries): Simple living quarters for monks, later developed into grand structures. Example: Nalanda and Vikramshila Universities. 4. Pagodas (in later periods): Tall, multi-tiered structures found in China, Japan, and Southeast Asia.

Attract Project - SOIL SKIN, The SOILSKIN project aims to create renewable ga...BarusRa

AUTHORS: Barbara Rakovská, Soﬁa Mazzucchelli Pompeu de Toledo, Xaneva Elorriaga George FUTURE TECHNOLOGIES FOR SUSTAINABLE FASHION 2024 The SOILSKIN project aims to create renewable garments integrated with biotechnological components. Inspired by post-earth roamers forced to endure aridity, the wool-cotton blend textile used for the body of our dress is temperature adaptable, sustainable to cultivate and acts as a carbon sink. The design features a 3D printed corset and medieval-style gorget with a degradé coloring, representing desiccation cracks due to global warming. This armour reflects UV rays, but also represents the aestheticization of climate change in dystopian narratives. In our futuristic imagining, the hands-on ritual of ripping and immersing the fabric will not only stimulate ecological restoration, but revive humanity's empathy for the planet's thirst.

Promoting Sustainable Development of Hill Areas --Issues and OptionsJIT KUMAR GUPTA

Managing and Rationalising India’s Hill Areas Growth and Development ; Hill areas are known to be different and distinct from plain areas of any country, because of its unique diversity, physiography, structure, topography, morphology, flora, fauna, herbs, fruits, vegetation, bio-diversity, climate, culture, heritage, fragility, vulnerability, nature, natural resource, views, quality of life, lakes, glaciers, mobility, infrastructure, built structures etc. Occupying 17% geographical areas and housing 11% national population, hill areas occupy unique space and importance in the growth story of India, as a nation. Despite distinct character, role , relevance and importance of rational planned development of hill areas, its overall / integrated development and management has been marginalized. With priority and resources going to the plain areas of the country, hill areas are being subjected to large unplanned, irrational and sub-standard growth and development. Accordingly, hill areas are fast becoming hotbeds of vulnerability, both natural and manmade, facing large number of challenges in terms of earthquakes, landslides and flooding, leading to massive loss of human life, animals, infrastructure, built environment and property. Current scenario of irrational, unplanned and haphazard development in hill areas can be, primarily and essentially, attributed to the absence of adequately trained manpower in the art and science of planning, development and management of the hill areas and giving low priority to rationalising development of hill areas. Having special and specific features, hill areas pose different/unique challenges in planning and development and accordingly need different skill-sets, understanding, expertise and approach to its planning and development. Unfortunately, despite having large area and housing large population, no institution in the country offers specialized course in the planning, development , construction and management of hill areas. It is time for Government of India and hill states of India, to ask all IITs/Nits/SPAs and other private universities, located in the hill states to run dedicate specialized courses for the planning, development and management of hill areas. In addition, Government of India, must enact a law and Constitute a High Powered National, Hill Area Planning and Development Authority , on the pattern of NCR Delhi , comprising of representatives of Government of India, hill states and experts from the related fields, under the overall Chairmanship of Minister-in Charge Hill States with Ministers of hill states, Chief Secretaries of Hill States as members , to define the agenda and roadmap for the integrated growth and development of hill states of the country. The Authority should be mandated to prepare the Regional plan of the entire Himalayan Region and provide framework for the states to draw its own Regional Plan. This would help in not only ensuring integrated growth
