3BY10 is a monthly presentation and networking event, in which three creative professionals or students from the Portland area get ten minutes each to present a recent project, discuss a trend, or just talk about the local design scene. Talks are followed by a round table discussion and social hour at a nearby lounge, in this case, at Someday Lounge near backspace between Couch/Davis on 5th. Admission is always free.

This weeks line up? Mark Schoening: How ID blends with engineering. Emily Vislocky: Bauhaus University in Wiemar Germany. Kate Ertmann: How can ethnographic animation be used in product/process development?

Join us (Barbara Holmes and Jeanne Turner) your fearless IxDA co-leaders as we guest lecture for the Art Institute!

We’re taking on equally fearless information design students and discussing a few aspects about how your brain works, and how we as designers toy with how your brain works. Specifically and scientifically, Barbara will cover the principles behind short-term memory processing and cognitive load. Jeanne will then flip the rules on their ass as she shares how these same principles are harnessed to provide whimsy and delight in the best iPhone and iPad apps. Join us for a fun, interactive session. And be prepared to share your insights with students eager to hear from working pros like you.

When: Tuesday, November 16th Time: 6 pm – 10 pm (thereabouts) Where: Portland Art Institute in the Culinary Arts building

          722 Northwest Couch Street, Portland, OR - 
          Room number is CUL302

Please be prompt. The doors to this building are locked and entry is controlled. Because this is a class, we need to start on time to respect the student’s time and investment. Unlike typical IxDA meetups, we cannot handle refreshments in this venue. We don’t know the room capacity, so be patient if it’s crowded.

Here’s the timeline we’re aiming for: 6 – 7 Barbara 7 – 8 Jeanne 8 Q&A and discussion 8:30 adjourn (to a local restaurant/bar tbd) for further discussion.
