They can help us learn about people\, culture\, and context—why\, when\, and how our pro ducts might be used—and share this with a design team. Stories permeate UX techniques from user stories to storyboards. They come to full power when used with personas: the persona provides a fully envisioned lead ch aracter for the story\, a perspective through which interactions can be explored\, and a voice for the emotional reactions to design ideas. \ ;\n \;\nCreating stories for personas is a craft. They are not fictio n\, but are grounded in the data and user research that informs the pers ona. They are not fact\, but are imagined events\, shaped to explore pos sibilities. They are realistic\, but not perhaps real\, because they rep resent not just one individual or event\, but something that might happe n\, and that provides insights into a user experience. \;\n \;\nWe ’ll look at some structures that are helpful in crafting persona stories . And at questions like whether to write in first\, second\, or third pe rson—and when each is valuable.

There are the inevitable boosters and utopian dreamers who will tell us and sell u s on the notion that this new technology will change our lives\, in both big and small ways: we will be cleaner\, safer\, happier\, more efficie nt\, more productive\, and of course\, more modern with all that implies . The message here is everything will be different\, better. There are a lso the equally inevitable naysayers and dystopian dreamers who worry al ong equally familiar but slightly different lines: we will be less socia l\, less secure\, more isolated\, and more homogenous. The message here is everything will be different\, but perhaps not so much better. Of cou rse\, running in between these larger conversations are the practicaliti es of living with new technologies—how much does it cost? where does it live? who should look after it? what will we will do with it? and\, in t he end\, what will we do without it? \;\n \;\nPerhaps it is no sur prise then that we worry\, that new technologies are frequently accompan ied by anxiety\, and sometimes even fear. In this talk\, Genevieve trace s the roots of these hopes\, fears and anxieties back through our histor y with machines—Vaucason’s Duck\, Edison’s Talking Doll\, the tea-cup ro bots of the Edo-period in Japan\, Frankenstein’s monster and Ned Ludd’s polemics are all part of this story. She takes an expansive view\, cross ing cultures and historical periods\, to create a genealogy of our socio -technical anxieties. Ultimately\, she suggests a framework for making s ense of these anxieties\, and in so doing\, a new way of thinking about the next generation of technologies we are designing.\n\nTags: computer\ , ux\, interaction\, forum\, oregon\, portland\, chifoo\, user-experienc e\, story telling\n\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/12504656 04 URL:http://www.chifoo.org/index.php/chifoo/events_detail/ducks_dolls_robo ts_a_genealogy_of_socio-technical_anxieties/ SUMMARY:CHIFOO Meeting: Ducks\, Dolls & Robots: a Genealogy of Socio-Tech nical Anxieties LOCATION:Puppet: 308 SW 2nd Ave Fifth Floor\, Portland OR 97204 US SEQUENCE:6 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20140310T185857Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20140507T203000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20140507T190000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20140310T185857Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20140310T185857Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250465809 DESCRIPTION:Speaking the Language of Meta-Principles: Consistency\, Hiera rchy\, and Personality with Deborah Levinson\, Nimble Partners \;\n&# 13\;\nWhen designing or redesigning an application\, Nimble Partners foc uses on three core principles: consistency\, hierarchy\, and personality . We can think of these principles as if they’re part of a language. Con sistency and hierarchy are the grammar people learn while using an appli cation: the basic elements that define how a language is spoken. The “wo rds” we speak—that is\, the visual design characteristics we choose to c onvey a message—create an application’s personality. These principles ar e so fundamental to creating successful interfaces that we call them “me ta-principles.” While technology that affects interfaces changes\, the u nderlying meta-principles hold true. \;\n \;\nNimble Partners arri ved at these three meta-principles after years of heuristic reviews\, us ability studies\, and informal observation of digital applications. In t his talk\, Deborah will introduce these principles and show how they app ly in examples\, including a case study redesign of a web and mobile app lication to help users track diet and exercise.\n\nTags: computer\, ux\, interaction\, forum\, oregon\, portland\, chifoo\, user-experience\, st ory telling\n\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/1250465809 URL:http://www.chifoo.org/index.php/chifoo/events_detail/speaking_the_lan guage_of_meta-principles_consistency_hierarchy_and_personal/ SUMMARY:CHIFOO Meeting: Speaking the Language of Meta-Principles: Consist ency\, Hierarchy\, and Personality LOCATION:Connective DX Community Room: 2030 NW Pettygrove St\, Portland O R 97209 US SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20140310T190125Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20140604T203000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20140604T190000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20140310T190125Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20140512T185156Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250465810 DESCRIPTION:Epic FAIL: Takeways from the War Stories Project \;\nwith Steve Portigal\, Portigal Consulting \;\n \;\nAfter nearly two yea rs in gathering War Stories about the unusual\, comic\, tragic and other wise astonishing things that happen in fieldwork\, Portigal Consulting h as amassed a compelling archive about the user research experience. Whil e it’s common for the members of any group to share stories of their adv entures\, the user research community hasn’t supported this well. For a practice that feels misunderstood by others\, there’s pressure to only s hare successes. Yet the confidence to share the honest and human messine ss of this work can help develop the skill and even prestige of the comm unity. \;\n \;\nIn this presentation\, Steve will review some of t he stories collected\, highlight some of the patterns revealed by the st ories\, and suggest some of the lessons that we can take away.

Humanity’s experience is constantly shifting and so is the motivation behind our fears and goals \, and that shift changes how we experience and use things. Story allows one to put a finger on that pulse. Story gets right to the bottom of th ings\, it uncovers how the user will actually use the product in this ti me/place\, how they will experience it in their lives\, in their own hom e/office etc. Story is research above market “fill in the blank” researc h. It exposes rituals\, and when one works to streamline those rituals\, innovation enters.

Ofte n the first line of defense in a corporate environment is the internal a udience and invested key stakeholders. \;\n \;\nDeveloping the sol ution is not enough. How you communicate the idea is just as important a s the solution itself. Communicating your approach at the right time wit h the right mediums\, and using the right level of fidelity to motivate the audience into action is an art. One needs to be an effective persuad er. One needs to be a provocateur. \;\n \;\nAbout the Speaker \ ;\nLee Fain (@houseoffain) leverages the process of design provocation t o develop compelling stories of technology while building deeper relatio nships within 3M’s culture of innovation. He currently leads design-cent ric initiatives for 3M’s Electronics &\; Energy Business Group based in Saint Paul\, MN. His expertise is in contextualizing material science solutions through the tools of design and articulating big stories of i nnovation with high fidelity video productions. \;\n \;\nBefore th is role\, Lee was a strategic designer within 3M’s Consumer Business Gro up where he developed product design strategies for brands including Pos t-it and Scotch. His experience over the past 10 years ranged from websi te development for the US Air Force in Aviano\, Italy to appliance desig n for General Electric to expanding intellectual property claims on emer ging technologies. Most recently his design thinking was highlighted in a book titled: Solving Problems with Design Thinking: Ten Stories of Wha t Works (Columbia University Press). \;\n \;\nLee Fain received a Master of Fine Arts in Industrial Design from the Savannah College of Ar t and Design and a Bachelor of Arts in Communications from Campbell Univ ersity in North Carolina.

D esign is a process where we finely tune our intuition to create great us er experiences. Yet\, sometimes\, what we think is best rivals the metri cs. So which do we believe-our gut or the data? \;\n \;\nIn the wo rld of measures\, metrics\, and Key Performance Indicators some practice s\, like the growth hacking approach to increasing Monthly Average Users (MAUs)\, have hurt the online experience of Instagram and LinkedIn. Whi le alternatives to satisfaction and net promoter score give insight into the design process and help designers have better instincts. \;\n 3\;\nIf you’re ready to talk to your teams about what you really need\, help management interpret the data\, and create analytical experiments t hat provide design insights\, don’t miss this talk. \;\n \;\nAbout the Speaker \;\nJared Spool (@jmspool) is a co-founder of Center Cen tre and the founder of UIE. \;\n \;\nWhile he led UIE\, the indust ry research firm he started in 1988\, the field of UX design emerged and Jared helped define what makes UX designers successful all over the wor ld.

And so we make embarrassing blunders – racist c hatbots\, manipulative research\, privacy violations – that undermine tr ust and harm those we should help. \;\n \;\nThis is a dangerous tr ajectory. We urgently need a deeper ethical dialogue about emerging tech nology\, and interaction design's role within it. This session\, informe d by many months of ongoing research\, will discuss: \;\n \;\n-Why companies make poor ethical decisions\, \;\n-The development of ethi cal thinking in other morally-charged disciplines\, \;\n-Methods of e ngaging users in the ethics of emerging technology\, \;\n-Ways for de signers to engage positively and affect ethical outcomes\, so that desig n decisions benefit not only ourselves but our wider communities and the world at large. \;\n \;\nAbout The Speaker \;\nCennydd Bowles' (@Cennydd) is a London-based designer and writer with fifteen years of experience advising clients including Twitter\, Ford\, Cisco\, and the B BC. His focus today is the ethics of emerging technology. He has lecture d on the topic at Carnegie Mellon University\, Google\, and New York’s S chool of Visual Arts\, and is a sought-after speaker at technology and d esign events worldwide.
