the future of ux (is already here!)
DESCRIPTION
Futurism is all well and good, but the immediacy of our day-to-day projects demands a different mindset when it comes to grand statements about “The FUTURE!” In this session we'll ask (and answer) questions rooted in the here and now:What is happening right now in User Experience Design that professionals need to know about?How do you make sure your ideas, projects and campaigns are taking advantage of new devices and contexts?What can you do to help future-proof your work so it bends and doesn’t break?And the toughest question of all: “What now?”TRANSCRIPT
