IxDA Berlin and Usability Stammtisch BBQ

When: 7pm – 10pm Wednesday, August 12th, 2009
Where: Bassier, Bergmann  Kindler, Milastraße 2, Berlin


This time it`s all about mutual exchange over mutually roasted meat (or
vegetable, according to your taste!). Once again we get together with
Berlin`s Usability Stammtisch 
(http://usability-stammtisch-berlin.mixxt.de), this time to enjoy an

evening at the BBQ.

As an exception to the rule, we DON`T meet at the new thinking store for 
this event, but Bassier, Bergmann  Kindler, one of Germany`s leading 
partners for brand leadership and training with digital media, are 
kindly providing their balcony.


BBQ facilities are all there, PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN FOOD AND DRINKS.

You`ll find Bassier, Bergmann  Kindler`s Berlin office at Milastraße 2 
in Prenzlauer Berg. Just check their website (http://www.bb-k.com) for

more information.


So, hope to see you all at the fireplace!


Cheers!thomas

[IxDA Discuss] [local][EVENT] Berlin/Germany Get Together

2008-07-30 Thread Thomas Kueber

So it`s up for number IXDA Berlin`s local meeting III:

When7pm - 10pm Wednesday, August 6th 2008
Where   newthinking store GmbH, Tucholskystr. 48, 10117 Berlin

Just as last time: New Thinking Store, who`s kindly hosting us and
provides space, beamer and network connection
(http://store.newthinking.de/), closes at 9pm. So that`s the time then
to crawl for a nearby pub to fade out the evening with your drink of choice.

Topics this time: Design Processes.
As stated last time we consider it quite interesting how IxD is done and 
organised in the different organisation we work in. So I guess I gonna 
start and present some of the ideas at D-LABS GmbH to start the 
discussion. If you are interested feel free to prepare slides or any 
material from your perspective and bring them along. I guess we are all 
not too much interested in a general talk about UCD processes, so I`d 
rather see this as an entry point for a discussion about the practice we 
are all conducting.


So hope to see you in a week. If you got any comments, change
requests, worthy truths don`t hesitate to mail me.

As always: bring everyone who might be interested. Spread the word!

If you are reading this and feel like interested in the Berlin local
group come and join our Groupsite at: www.ixdaberlin.collectivex.com

Best!
Thomas

I´d like to announce our second local meeting in Berlin:


July 2nd, 19.00

beamer (big thank-you guys!). Tino from Rapid Rabbit is going to talk a 
bit about their rapid-protoyping tool that enables wireframing in an 
online-application.
