DESCRIPTION:For a few years\, I've been trying to create UIs that have a 
 consistency\,&#13\;\ntangibility\, and predictability akin to that of ph
 ysical objects. I&#13\;\nthink this results in software that is easy for
  the average person to&#13\;\nuse and understand.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nThe onl
 y way I know how to describe the kinds of behaviors that result&#13\;\ni
 n the physicality I seek is with state machines. I've built a library&#1
 3\;\ncalled Plastic that lets me define state machines composed of pure&
 #13\;\nfunctions triggered by DOM events. This allows me to express the&
 #13\;\nbehaviors making up the UI in almost exactly the same way I desig
 n them&#13\;\nwith pen and paper\, all the while hiding mutation in the 
 implementation&#13\;\nin fine Clojurian fashion.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nIn this 
 talk I'll describe my philosophy of UI design in more detail\,&#13\;\npr
 ovide some examples of the physicality I'm aiming for\, and show how&#13
 \;\none is implemented using Plastic. If time and enthusiasm allows\, we
  can&#13\;\ncollaboratively define another simple software object using 
 Plastic on&#13\;\nthe fly\, to get a bottom-up perspective in addition t
 o the top-down&#13\;\nperspective of the scripted talk.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nI
  hope to see you there.&#13\;\n&#13\;\n-DLP&#13\;\n&#13\;\nP.S. I am amu
 sed to be delivering a talk in defense of objects\, but&#13\;\nthese are
  strange times we live in.\n\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events
