Moonwalking Bears?

Dan Saffer – Attention Awareness for Interaction Designers 2009 from Interaction Design Association on Vimeo.

Notizen:

• Design is not just about solving problems, it is also about invention
• design hasn´t a center, we are generalists
• we are in an interaction design revolution: there are new paradigms (gesture, voice and touch)
• “Making the visible invisible and the invisible visible.” (Adam Greenfield)
  –> products are dematerializing and there´s a massive amout of data
• Resist the defining interaction design discussion! whatever the definition is, the task is to make beautiful, meaningful and functional products
• aesthetics matters, care for the details
  bad aesthetics = bad experience
• it sometimes benefits us to be more like artists than like scientists
• steal/learn from other discipline (interaction design has an isolated and small knowledge base, learn from the movies or from biology…)
• keep the future in mind
• you know already everything you need to know to design the future.
  “I learn by going where I have to go” (Theodore Roethke)

“What cannot be overcome by reason can be subverted with glamour”
Bruce Sterling
