SECOND ANNUAL INTERACTION DESIGN STUDIO
You are invited to join the New York IxDA community for a hands-on,
interactive design studio evening.

RSVP: See special instructions below
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Last fall we launched our very first Studio event, which was a lot
of fun
and gave us a chance to practice design together, sharing our
experience as
a diverse group. (More about last year's event here:
http://tinyurl.com/3362rx) The second annual IxD Studio will be a
similar
format: a one-hour design exercise addressed from within small
breakout
groups, followed by a constructive group critique led by Liya Zheng
and
Jeanine Harriman.
The exercise has been designed to help you explore:
-- The design of information in a ubiquitous medium
-- The intersections of the UX disciplines we know as Information
Architecture, Interaction Design, and Service Design
Through participation in this studio, you will:
-- Refine your current design techniques and gain exposure to new ones
-- Understand the thinking behind the various concepts presented by
the rest
of the group, identifying opportunities and directions to further
your own
designs
-- Gain insights into how to build a constructive studio environment
to
support your work; where critiques may be used to advance design
concepts
and practices.
Because of the collaborative nature of this workshop we encourage
participants with a wide variety of background and skill levels; a
diverse
group maximizes the potential for participants to learn from each
other.
WHEN
Thursday, October 16th, 2008
