The key to Pecha Kucha Night is it s patented system for avoiding this fate. Each presenter is allowed 20 i mages\, each shown for 20 seconds each – giving 6 minutes 40 seconds of fame before the next presenter is up. This keeps presentations concise\, the interest level up\, and gives more people the chance to show. \; \n \;\nPecha Kucha (which is Japanese for the sound of conversation) has tapped into a demand for a forum in which creative work can be easil y and informally shown\, without having to rent a gallery or chat up a m agazine editor. This is a† demand that seems to be global – as Pecha Kuc ha Night\, without any pushing\, has spread virally to over 100 cities a cross the world. Find a location and join the conversation. \;\n \ ;\nIf you are interested in starting a Pecha Kucha Night in your city\, please contact : pechakucha@klein-dytham.com \;\n\n\nTags: pecha kuch a\, design\, art\n\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/125045614 6 URL:http://www.pecha-kucha.org/cities/portland-oregon SUMMARY:Pecha Kucha LOCATION:An amazing space at SE 10th and Alder: SE 10th and Alder\, Portl and Oregon 97214 US SEQUENCE:0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20081210T225030Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20081210T160000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20081210T150000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20081210T225030Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20081210T225030Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250456220 DESCRIPTION:"\;Can I buy you a drink?"\; \;\n \;\nThis is o ur monthly gathering for the entire Portland design community.

You are probably dread ing the\, “Hey\, wasn’t that you I saw hitting on the beer chip lady” co nversation. Well\, it is time to come out to do some damage control. dMo b is classing it up this August at North 45. North 45 has wine\, fancy c ocktails\, and promises to be an environment free from hop crowns\, loud crowd cheers\, and inebriated handstand competitions. Make new creative friends and never forget the dMob mantra… “Can I buy you a drink?” \ ;\n \;\nThe dMob Concept \;\nThis is our monthly gathering for the entire Portland design community. Social interaction and networking is the core of this monthly event. AIGA Portland wants to encourage discuss ion\, business development\, and help foster a more dynamic design commu nity here in Portland. Plus\, with such a plethora of independent brewer ies\, our choice of venues and beverages is expansive. \;\n \;\nFe es \;\nFree and open to the public. That’s right\, no charge! For one \, you’ll have a great time. And even better\, it’s an amazing opportuni ty to network and meet fellow designers. \;\n \;\nHow It Works \;\nIt’s simple. When you arrive\, you’ll get a sticker to wear. Venture forth\, find another sticker-wearer and offer them a drink. That’s the trick: you can’t just drink your own\, that just wouldn’t be social. It’ s a great way to break the ice. \;\n \;\nAdditional Info \;\nIf you have questions or would like additional information\, please contac t: info@portland.aiga.org \;\n \;\ndMob now has a permanent web pa ge on the Portland AIGA site.

Business people have focused on designing o rganizations to reliably generate profits. Today’s designers have focuse d on designing products and services to be truly compelling to customers . What is most compelling to customers though\, is often not rational or logical. So designers have evolved effective and efficient trial-and-er ror approaches that recognize and accommodate rational and non-rational factors. When these heuristics have been applied to strategy and busines s modeling\, it has produced businesses such as the Apple’s iTunes and i Pod ecosystem. Design Thinking balances left brain and right brain decis ion-making\, and when applied to strategy work often creates bigger win- wins for companies and their customers\, than achievable through convent ional thinking. \;\n \;\nIn this short experiential workshop\, bas ed on techniques used at HP\, we will provide a brief introduction to th e key concepts\, break up into small teams and step through a facilitate d Design Thinking exercise. At the end of the session\, we will regroup to learn from each team’s experience with the process. \;\n \;\nTh e Design Thinking approach is collaborative\, interdisciplinary and high ly relevant to anyone involved in the development of new products and se rvices: product managers\, engineers\, designers\, and marketers. The ob jective of this workshop is to provide you with the foundations of Desig n Thinking and launch your on-going learning on the topic. \;\n \; \nDue to the interactive nature of the exercise\, we’ll have to limit th e number of registrants so register early to make sure you get to partic ipate that evening. \;\n \;\nA special thanks to the Oregon Techno logy Business Center (OTBC) for hosting this event. \;\n\n\nTags: pro duct development\, design\, product management\, project management\, pr ogram management innovation\n\nImported from: http://calagator.org/event s/1250459384 URL:http://www.pdma.org/oregon SUMMARY:Design Thinking: Integrating the Left and Right Brain for Better Decisions\, Better Results LOCATION:OTBC (Oregon Technology Business Center): 8305 Southwest Creeksi de Place\, Beaverton Oregon 97008 US SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20100429T162244Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20101122T230000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20101122T190000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20100429T162244Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20100429T162244Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250458619 DESCRIPTION:Part hackathon\, part geek social\, these biweekly meetings a re a time for you to come join others for insight\, inspiration or just insanity.

Where " \;min-width"\; used to be the default\, you're now seeing a lot of d esign starting with "\;max-width"\; (friendly for mobile and net books). Many tips and tricks around this one\, for example: The 100% ima ge trick (for scalable images) Utilizing media queries The 62.5% trick ( sets ems to 10px\, and use only % and ems) Proper text sizing for both s mall and large devices using % column widths rather than pixels and much more. \;\n \;\nKory has graciously agreed to present this long ov erdue talk.

Making your website accessible a nd usable by people who are sight\, hearing\, or in other ways physicall y impaired can be a huge help to a large class of internet users. You ma y have done a little accessibility feature for ADA compliance\, but beyo nd that\, it's just the right thing to do\, and isn't as difficult as yo u might think if you focus on accessibility from the start. We'll cover all sorts of accessibility\, including designing for screen readers. \;\n \;\nYou won't want to miss this huge and interesting topic\, and we're lucky to have two expert speakers on the topic: Winslow Parker an d Lorelle VanFossen. \;\n \;\nWinslow Parker is the Lead Adaptive Technology Specialist at the Oregon Commission for the Blind. Worked as adaptive technology trainer for 17 years. He's also worked in medical so cial work\, pastoring and mental health fields.

With first person int erfaces we can allow people to interact digitally with the real world as they are currently experiencing it. This allows people to navigate the space around them\, augment their immediate surroundings\, and interact with nearby objects\, locations\, or people. \;\n \;\nFirst person interfaces enable people to interact with the real world through a set of “always on” sensors. Simply place a computing device in a specific lo cation\, near a specific object or person\, and automatically get releva nt output based on who you are\, where you are\, and who or what is near you. \;\n \;\nThe technology to make this happen is here today bu t these interfaces are in their infancy –they need design help. They nee d designers to care and focus on this class of software. \;\n \;\ nAbout the Speaker \;\nLuke Wroblewski is an internationally recogni zed digital product design leader who has designed or contributed to sof tware used by more than 700 million people worldwide. \;\n \;\nL uke is currently Chief Design Officer and co-founder of a stealth start- up. He is also an Entrepreneur in Residence (EIR) at Benchmark Capital. Prior to this\, Luke was the Chief Design Architect (VP) at Yahoo! Inc. where he worked on product alignment and forward-looking integrated cust omer experiences on the web\, mobile\, TV\, and beyond. \;\n \;\n Luke is the author of two popular web design books\, Web Form Design and Site-Seeing: A Visual Approach to Web Usability. He has also authored many articles about digital product design and strategy. He is also a c onsistently top-rated speaker at conferences and companies around the wo rld\, and a co-founder and former Board member of the Interaction Design Association (IxDA). \;\n\n\nTags: ux\, tech\, design\n\nImported fr om: http://calagator.org/events/1250461429 URL:http://www.chifoo.org SUMMARY:Design for First Person User Interfaces LOCATION:University of Oregon Portland: 70 NW Couch Street\, Portland Ore gon 97209 US SEQUENCE:3 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20111018T203736Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20111105T220000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20111105T193000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20111018T203736Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20111018T203736Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250461484 DESCRIPTION:Grub with David Kadavy\, author of "\;Design for Hackers: Reverse-Engineering Beauty"\;.

He's a member of a growing group of javascript de velopers who are blazing the trail of realtime and single-page web appli cation development and server-side javascript.

When does looking for inspira tion become detrimental distraction? When does working for hours on end become hazardous and counterproductive? \;\n \;\nLet's all talk a bout how we deal with this in our daily work: how we stay focused\, how we stay excited\, how we budget our time and attention.

Those of us who claim to love HTML may just be victims of Stoc kholm Syndrome\, both praising yet secretly loathing it. \;\nBasho de signer John Newman is making the trek from the swamps of Florida to show us the way. In the modern world of markup preprocessors\, these alterna tive syntaxes allow you to write simpler\, cleaner\, more concise code i n a shorter amount of time.

Apply your skil ls to an important environmental challenge \;\n \;\n2. Meet and wo rk with some seriously smart and creative Portlanders \;\n \;\n3. Showcase your talents to international marine bird scientists and the Pa ckard Foundation\, who have pioneered environmental work in sustainable seafood and beyond \;\n \;\n4. A monetary prize will be awarded to the winning team \;\n \;\n5. There'll be free food\, beer and oth er surprises for all participants \;\n \;\n \;\nTHE PROBLEM \;\nSeabird bycatch is when birds are unintentionally captured and kille d in fishing activities. Bycatch is always bad\, but for endangered spec ies with already vulnerable populations\, it’s devastating. In order to address this critical environmental challenge\, we need to find an ingen ious way to track this bycatch. Better data collection could lead to bet ter long-term management and protection protocols. \;\n \;\nWHY ME ? \;\nIf you have design\, programming\, or project management chops\ , you can prevent the accidental death \;\nof marine birds. A monetar y prize will be awarded to the winning team. Plus\, there will be plenty of free food and beer. \;\n \;\nWAIT\, HOLD ON... WHAT’S A HACKAT HON? \;\nA hackathon is an event where creative and tech-savvy people collaborate to build solutions for hard-to-solve problems. You’ll fit r ight in. \;\n \;\n \;\n \;\nFAQs \;\n \;\nWhere can I contact the organizer with any questions? \;\n \;\nPlease direct your questions to packardx [at] contextpartners [dot] com. \;\n \; \nWhere can I find some more background on the issue? \;\n \;\nRel evant background materials will be shared to the Squawkathon wiki as the y become available: wiki.squawkathon.org \;\n \;\nWill the David a nd Lucile Packard Foundation provide funding to further develop concepts ? \;\n \;\nThrough this Squawkathon\, the Packard Foundation is in terested in surfacing ideas for efficiently monitoring marine bird bycat ch. The ideas that come out of the Squawkathon will be all of ours to de velop further and build on. At this point in time\, the Foundation is no t committing resources to the development of any particular idea\, but w ill continue to assess whether our support could have significant impact in the protection of marine birds species. A monetary prize will be awa rded to the winning team. \;\n \;\nDo I need to come to both days? \;\n \;\nBecause we have a lot to do in a short amount of time\, we are asking participants to attend both the kick-off and the day of th e hackathon itself. \;\n \;\nIs there a dress code? \;\n \;\ nVery informal. Wear whatever you work best in. \;\n \;\nWill free food and drinks be involved? \;\n \;\nLocal beer and local food. Duh. It's Portland.\n\nTags: design\, data\, squawkathon\, context partn ers\, lucky lab\, isite\, seabirds\, bycatch\, birds\, marine birds\, pa ckard foundation\n\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/125046476 6 URL:http://www.squawkathon.org SUMMARY:Squawkathon LOCATION:Quimby Lucky Lab / ISITE Design: false SEQUENCE:2 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130824T074241Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130924T210000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130924T190000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130824T074241Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20140223T232824Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250464760 DESCRIPTION:For September\, UX Happy Hour is teaming up with the PDX Web &\; Design Meetup group (http://www.meetup.com/pdxweb/) for one big h appy mix of people who make the internets a more awesome place!\n\nTags: beer\, design\, web\, ux\, happy hour\, ux happy hour\n\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/1250464760 URL:http://twitter.com/uxhappyhour SUMMARY:Portland UX (+ Web and Design) Happy Hour LOCATION:Rontoms: 600 E Burnside St.\, Portland Oregon United States SEQUENCE:3 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130924T135541Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20131009T201500 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20131009T181500 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130924T135541Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130924T135541Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250464934 DESCRIPTION:How it works: \;\n \;\nCome have a beer and (if you wan t to) play some pong: \;\n \;\nDo you work for a tech company in a ny way\, shape\, or form (start-up\, developer\, marketing\, design\, ad min\, tech student\, etc.)?

The concept of kick-a ss is\, more often than not\, resting precariously upon the notion of au thenticity: that which is either original or conforms to an accepted nor m set forth by an original. However\, is it really that simple? In actua lity\, the term is more loaded in nature than it would appear. Authentic ity is tied\, as are all sought-after commodities\, to economic dynamics . We’ll discuss why some products and concepts are viewed as authentic a nd other\, tandem\, items as old-hat and what that means to us as UX pro fessionals. \;\n \;\nPart Two: “What Should You Measure and How Do You Present It for Impact?” with Nechama Katan. Nechama will provide a process for continuous data discovery and analysis focused on metrics an d measures that matter. We will explore some tools that provide self-ser vice analytics and show how they can be used to maintain a relevant set of measures. Finally\, good data is not enough\, how it is presented mat ters. \;\n \;\n \;\nPart Three: “Hopeful Monsters: Punctuated Equilibrium and the Post-Book Age” with Corey Pressman. The advent of hy pertext and the new art of interaction design signal the dawn of a post- book epoch. We will focus on the User Experience Design opportunities th is moment affords. Innovative products and features such as content-rich apps and shared marginalia will be presented\, evaluated\, and discusse d. \;\n\n\nTags: design\, ux\, tech\n\nImported from: http://calagat or.org/events/1250465008 URL:http://www.chifoo.org/index.php/chifoo/events/ SUMMARY:CHIFOO Presents: Three Kick-Ass Power Presentations\, One Night LOCATION:Connective DX Community Room: 2030 NW Pettygrove St\, Portland O R 97209 US SEQUENCE:2 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20131110T035315Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20131211T200000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20131211T180000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20131110T035315Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20140422T012851Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250465195 DESCRIPTION:We're back for a December UX Happy Hour right before/in betwe en the holidays! \;\n \;\n--- \;\n \;\n**The spiel:** \;\ nUX Happy Hour is open to anyone who's interested in user experience and design.

The shift away from manufacturing has been happening for some time\, but lately the pace of change is increasing. New offerings make it easier and cheaper for indi viduals to become service providers\, and expanding networks are changin g the business landscape day by day. The level of coherency consumers de mand across an ever-increasing range of digital and analog interactions is on the rise\, too. Established businesses complain of being internall y siloed\, or not nimble enough to keep up\; agile startups struggle to escape price wars in commodified industries. The challenge for organizat ions large and small is actually the same: how do we connect better? How can we mean more? \;\n \;\nThe answer lies in understanding the n ature of change\, which our panel will investigate: \;\n \;\n--How can businesses learn to identify when change presents opportunity? \;\n \;\n--What does it take to continually understand and adapt to c hanging customers? \;\n \;\n--How do businesses know what to chang e to stay relevant? \;\n \;\nInnovation is essential to meeting to day’s challenges through new services or reimagining mature offerings. T he changes demanded aren’t limited to improving existing service offerin gs: innovation is the crucial ingredient to keep meeting changing market s and improve bottom lines\, online or in person. We hope you’ll join us for our discussion about what it means to keep up (and forge ahead) in the service economy. \;\n \;\nPANEL MEMBERS: \;\n \;\nKatie Dill\, Head of Experience Design \;\nAirbnb \;\nAs the Head of Air BnB's Experience Design\, Katie leads the interaction and visual design team defining Airbnb’s digital products and services.

The New York Times. Apple. All three are design leaders and h ave beautiful websites. \;\n \;\nUnbeknownst to many of us\, they also have gigantic design teams\, amazing product or content\, and seem ingly unlimited budgets - things most of us designers don’t have. \;\ n \;\nAfter spending several years designing large-scale responsive w ebsites for Fortune 500 companies with mega-budgets\, I now specialize i n design for progressive non-profit organizations. The good news is that we can still create kick-ass design for any budget as long as we utiliz e solid design fundamentals\, great communication\, and a few tricks up our sleeves. \;\n \;\nSome points that I’ll be covering in this ta lk are: \;\nHow to effectively iterate on concepts \;\nTime-sucks in the design process and how to fix them \;\nGreat time-saving open source tools \;\nBetter communication with developers and clients 3\;\n \;\nOur Presenter\, Josh Riggs \;\nJosh started his UX desig n career back in ’02 just like most other designers - by creating a webs ite for his metal band. Since then\, he’s been a designer for various in teractive agencies\, a mega health care conglomerate\, and an entertainm ent-focused Drupal consultancy. \;\n \;\nHe’s currently the Lead UX Designer at Portland-based ThinkShout\, where he puts his design skil ls to work for non-profit organizations doing good in the world. Origina lly from Florida\, Josh was lured to Portland by Pok Pok’s chicken wings and Blue Star’s donuts. He likes cold weather\, long-exposure photograp hy\, and has a female dog named Frank. \;\n \;\n \;\nOur Venue\ , ThinkShout \;\nThanks to ThinkShout for hosting us this month!

Every organization out there s eems to say that they want to make their users happy\, but who is really delivering on those promises? Who is really architecting for happiness? \;\n \;\nOn February 21\, 2015 we want to ask the world to help us uncover answers to questions we believe to be critical to the future of what Information Architecture is and how we practice it: \;\n \ ;\n \;\nCan information affect happiness? \;\nHow can we best arch itect structures for information that promote happiness? \;\nWhat wor k are organizations doing to bridge the gaps we face as we transition fr om a primarily analog to a primarily digital way of life? \;\nWhat do es Information Architecture actually mean? \;\n \;\n \;\nAgenda : \;\n \;\n9:00 - 10:00 Spencer Williams\, Architect and City Plan ner\, Futurewise \;\n \;\nSocial Architecture and City System Desi gn: Integrated\, Iterative And Intuitive Placemaking \;\n \;\nIn t his talk\, we'll examine why current city systems have the designs they do and what kind of information is required to plan for people. Informat ion Architecture and Architecture itself are synonymous. What makes bein g in a building\, a city\, a community\, or a body so rewarding is how t hat information is communicated and the response gleaned from those expe riencing it. This talk covers information-as-architecture\, cities that are more than a collection of just these objects (sidewalks\, intersecti ons\, etc) and what we can learn about this planning process that can be applied to nearly any industry. \;\n_______________________ \;\n1 0:00 - 11:00 Thubten Comerford\, Co-Founder of Pitchlandia\, Founder &a mp\; CEO of WePost Media \;\n \;\nOptimal Sequencing - Human Inter action Design \;\n \;\nDesigning success in life and business thro ugh the strategic sequencing of interpersonal communication. \;\n____ ___________________ \;\n11:00 - 12:00 Jose Caballer Chief Education O fficer\, The Skool + Director of Digital Strategy\, Blind and Chris Do Co-Founder\, The Skool + CEO and Creative Director\, Blind \;\n \; \nDesigning Powerful Facilitated Work Sessions \;\n \;\nBrainstorm ing doesn't work. This talk is focused on how to design powerful\, effec tive work sessions\, which result in high-fidelity team interaction and create happiness for all involved. The most important takeaway will be h ow the design of the agenda extends beyond the work session\, which will reveal techniques you can use right away. For example\; shifting from f ollow-up design tasks to design experiments can be seen as a happier way of producing more innovative solutions. We will explain the best ways t o document and track your ideas to help them become reality by engenderi ng ownership from each team member and instill confidence across all sta keholders. \;\n_____________________ \;\n1:00-2:00 Sara Stowe\, PH R\; Talent Acquisition Manager\, Smarsh \;\n \;\nCulture Fit: More Than A Feeling \;\n \;\nA bad hire is costly—financially as well as the impact on happiness and morale within the team. When we look back to understand what went wrong\, it’s unlikely that the person wasn’t qu alified or had the necessary skill set. More often\, it turns out that t hey weren’t a “fit.” How can you really predict if someone is going to f it in and be successful? Does success at one company mean success at you rs? Interview teams struggle to properly assess fit\, and often rely on their “gut feeling.” Intuition is hard-wired for our survival\, yes\, bu t we’re also fallible human beings who have history\, culture\, experien ce\, context which creates bias and\, in hiring\, makes the talent pool even more shallow. Understanding and articulating your company’s culture is at the crux of developing an approach to identify culture fit and th e potential for success. It is the foundation of a structured approach t o assessing talent\, employer brand\, engagement\, talent development an d performance feedback. Sara will walk you through her experience at Sma rsh as they embarked on developing a program to assess fit\, where “not- a-fit” trumps experience every time. \;\n_____________________ \;\ n2:00-3:00 Rain Dove\, Androgynous Supermodel and Public Figure\, Major Model \;\n \;\nIdentity Design: Breaking The Binary Gender Code 3\;\n \;\nGenderqueer Supermodel Rain Dove will help audiences become more aware of identity design through a look at binary gender identity ('he' and 'she')\, its origins and why this form of social design is no longer relevant.

In a world marked by an increasing sense of culinary culture amnesi a\, cooking is a lost art and many have a fragmented and distant relatio nship to food. So\, the world needs more cooks - people who craft their world through a lens of food\, cooking and eating. Cooking is not only a potent symbol of empowerment\, it is among the most human of all acts t hat stands at the center of an opportunity for widespread social impact. An increase in cooking has innumerable positive outcomes for individual s\, communities and our planet. As an example\, cooking literacy is at t he core of how we will solve our public health and chronic illness crisi s. In designing learning technologies and educational experiences to bui ld confidence in the kitchen\, I am on a mission to (re)produce food cul ture through active participation and engagement with others. \;\n___ __________________ \;\n4:00-5:00 Joshua Burkhow\, Global Ops.

Not to make prettier websites\, but to create art. Interactive and in finitely generative code art. \;\n \;\nBut fear not: though gettin g into programming can be incredibly intimidating\, code art\, is one pa th to coding that can be fun\, easy\, and instantly rewarding. John Brow n will show you some frameworks and sites that will get you started maki ng art quickly and easily. \;\n \;\nOccasionally\, a new discovery will come along that changes the way artists create. Pigments in antiqu ity or screen printing in the recent past have given artists a path to e xplore. Now computers\, and the frameworks created for them\, are hittin g the sweet spot of ease of use and power. Code art is still in its infa ncy\, and creative coding is the wild west. It’s all about exploring\, l ayering\, and trying new things. Any creative endeavor of the last 5000 years has a digital equivalent\, and there are myriad digital art paths that have no physical analogue. \;\n \;\nJohn Brown will show you how to get involved in creative coding. There is a great community local ly he’ll introduce you to. He’ll also talk a bit on the history of creat ive coding\, show you some of his work\, and talk about the future of co de art and how it fits into the greater art world. \;\n \;\nWhen y ou leave\, you’ll want to rush home and pick up a digital paintbrush and start making code art.\n\nTags: design\, web\, art\, code\n\nImported f rom: http://calagator.org/events/1250467903 URL:http://rfrshpdx.org/young-at-art/ SUMMARY:RefreshPDX: Young At Art – The Generative Generation LOCATION:Idealist: 209 SW Oak St Ste 600\, Portland OR 97205 US SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20150302T040814Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20150319T200000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20150319T180000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20150302T040814Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20150302T040814Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250467993 DESCRIPTION:Come trade food\, drinks\, and stories with fellow designers\ , researchers\, and people into user experience!

Accessibility seems like a thing that we sho uld do... but it's sometimes uncomfortable to talk about and it feels li ke there aren't that many people who need it anyway... right? \;\n 3\;\nWrong. About 1 in 5 Americans reports that they have some kind of d isability - from hearing impairment\, vision impairment\, mobility issue s to mental disabilities and more. What does this mean for you and your company? It means that if you're not creating sites\, services\, and pro ducts with this group of people in mind\, you're letting go of a multi-b illion dollar market share. It also means that you're missing opportunit ies to be innovative leaders in your space. It also - finally - means th at you're about to be breaking the law. Did you know that companies like Target and Netflix have been successfully (and expensively) sued for fa ilure to create and maintain accessible sites? Well\, they have. And we don't want that for you. \;\n \;\nWe're putting on a seriously han ds-on workshop to help people from all ends of all companies think about this topic. Building the Accessibility Roadmap is a hands-on workshop. It is not a panel\, or a lecture\, or a networking schmooze event. You w ill leave with a real plan that you can implement. If you\, your departm ent\, or company is ready to start thinking about the "\;accessibili ty question"\; - whether because it's the right thing to do or becau se it's the law - this workshop is designed to take you through our prop rietary tool and roadmap system that points the way forward.

You can find information about Maz and Attero’s operation a t mazandattero.xyz. \;\n \;\nSession 1\, August 25th: Make a Cust om Charm \;\nThe first session will overview the basics needed for su ccessfully designing 3D printing output\, particularly FFF/FDM printing. In the lesson we will create a snap-on custom charm for beer bottles/wi ne glasses. The creation of the snap-on charm will focus on basics of sk etching and creating geometry from sketches. You'll be able to put a wor d or name on the charm\, or even make flowers and/or geometric shapes!&# 13\;\n \;\nSession 2\, September 1st: Make a Trinket Box \;\nTh e second session is about modeling a trinket box with a lid. The session will focus on the combining/subtracting and/or intersecting of geometry for modeling. We'll also focus on the concept of fitting tolerances nee ded for CAM/CNC fabrication\, particularly 3D printing. \;\n \;\n Session 3 September 8th: Make a Six-Panel Hinged Cube with Custom Panel Design \;\nIn the third session\, you'll model a 6-panel hinged cube\ , including learning how to create fitted hinges. You'll also get creati ve with the custom designs on each panel. This folding cube can be desig ned with a sports team logo\, a company name\, anything you want. It can also be made into a desk trinket to hold pencils/pens/stylus just by cu tting out a hole on the top panel. \;\n \;\n--------------------- --------------- \;\n \;\n \;\nBy the end of this workshop serie s you'll have a comprehensive understanding of 3D printing\, 3D modeling software\, and 3D design. \;\n \;\nPart of ChickTech’s mission is to retain women in technology.

In what capa city do they exist? Should more people try to become unicorns? What does it take to be a designer/developer? \;\n \;\nDespite what the des criptor might imply\, being a unicorn isn’t magic – it’s work. Whether y ou’re starting a career in design\, already designing and coding all the time\, or hiring\, you’ll have to make decisions about what to prioriti ze. So rather than perpetuating unicorn myths\, let’s talk about what it ’s like to jump between two disciplines and what makes one designer bett er than another. \;\n \;\nOur speaker\, Elea Chang \;\nElea Cha ng is a Bay-Area-native-turned-Portlander who designs for the web and th inks about usability. Previously\, she worked for Upworthy\, Idealist\, and OkCupid Labs. Recently\, Elea has written pieces for Model View Cult ure and The Pastry Box\, and is putting together Affect\, a conference o n the intersection of design and social good.\n\nTags: refreshPDX\, desi gn\, develoipment\n\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/12504689 58 URL:http://rfrshpdx.org/unicorns-are-made/ SUMMARY:Unicorns Are Made\, Not Born: The Truths of Designer/Developers — RefreshPDX LOCATION:Idealist: 209 SW Oak \n Suite 101\, Portl and OR 97204 US SEQUENCE:2 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20151005T213027Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20151008T210000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20151008T180000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20151005T213027Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20151005T213027Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250469155 DESCRIPTION:DESIGNSPEAKS exists to explore design within the multidiscipl inary: architecture\, brand\, communications\, experience\, film\, fashi on\, graphic\, industrial.

He's in town for RustConf\, and will be sharing his talk on Desig n Patterns in Rust with us! Here's the abstract: \;\n \;\nThis tal k will cover some of the common idioms and design patterns encountered w hen programming in Rust.We’ll work through simple idioms used in everyda y programming for tasks such as object creation and customisation\, reso urce management\, and destruction. We’ll then cover more complex pattern s often used in generic data structures and libraries. We’ll also discus s some of the underlying themes and why these idioms and patterns occur in Rust. \;\n \;\nThe talk will not assume previous experience wit h Rust. The audience will gain an understanding of programming with Rust and its strengths and weaknesses. For those learning (or intending to l earn) Rust\, the talk should provide a short-cut to intermediate and adv anced programming skills. \;\n \;\nCorrode: Automatically Translat ing C to Rust \;\n \;\nC has been the de facto systems programming language for 44 years\, which means an awful lot of useful software is written in that language. As excellent as Rust is\, it doesn't have that inertia behind it. (Yet!) Rust has good FFI support for calling C funct ions\, plus tools for automatically generating FFI bindings\, which make much of that existing software usable for new Rust projects. Still\, ga ining Rust's full safety advantages requires rewriting existing C softwa re in Rust\, which is currently a manual\, time-consuming\, and error-pr one process. \;\n \;\nCorrode is a tool that aims to bridge this g ap by automatically translating C source code to equivalent Rust. A Corr ode-translated program is no safer than the original C was\, but it gets the most tedious translation work out of the way so a programmer can fo cus on taking advantage of Rust's more advanced features. \;\n \;\ nIn this talk we'll explore what Corrode does\, and does not\, do. We'll discuss interesting examples that will surprise most C programmers\, wh ile staying accessible to programmers in any language. We'll look at how Corrode has been tested: the most effective ways are methods not widely used with other software. And we'll evaluate Corrode's documentation an d community-building efforts\, to both show how you can contribute and s uggest steps you might consider for your own projects. \;\n \;\nSp eaker Jamey Sharp is Corrode's initial author and a programmer experienc ed in a variety of languages including C\, Java\, Python\, Haskell\, and x86 assembly. He is new to Rust\, compared to those languages\, and Cor rode grew out of his learning experiments. (The exercise has been very e ffective at finding odd corners of both C and Rust...) He recently compl eted a session as a Recurse Center resident\, teaching advanced topics t o diverse audiences of programming enthusiasts spanning every skill leve l\, which he enjoyed tremendously. \;\n \;\nOther information: \;\n \;\nPDXRust meets on the first Wednesday of every month\, from 6 -8pm\, at Mozilla's Portland space.

A great product onl y had to work and ship. A great experience was a nice-to-have\, not a re quirement. Times have changed. The cost of delivering a product is no lo nger a barrier to entry. Quality is no longer a differentiator. What’s l eft? The user’s experience. \;\n \;\nEvery part of the organizatio n must be infused with an understanding of great design. Your organizati on has to cross the UX Tipping Point. You must increase everyone’s expos ure to users\, communicate a solid experience vision\, and install a cul ture of continual learning. With that\, design will become your organiza tion’s competitive advantage. \;\n \;\nJared will show you and you r team: \;\n \;\n• Which path organizations take to become design- infused \;\n• How a centralized UX team is a stepping stone to a mor e UX capable organization \;\n• Why the market needs to demand a bet ter experience before it will matter \;\n• What your organization wi ll need to do to cross the UX Tipping Point \;\n \;\n———— \;\n& #13\;\nJared M.

As we've done often in the past\, Portland Comm unity Design Thinkers will be hosting a special meetup on Jan. 16 to hel p facilitate the creation of teams for all members who wish to join the course. \;\n \;\nCreated by IDEO.org for those who are relatively new to design thinking\, +Acumen's free Design Kit: Course for Human-Cen tered Design is probably one of the best and most immersive resources an ywhere for getting up to speed on the nuts and bolts of HCD. This meetup is specifically for those interested in learning more about the course and helping to form working teams. Please note PCDT is *not* managing th is course -- you'll be on your own for that. But we're keen to give anyo ne interested a leg up in getting off to the best possible start with a group of other eager local participants\, and participants are welcome t o use our own Slack channel for course communication and organizing\, as many groups have previously done. \;\n \;\nRead more about the co urse at the below link. \;\n \;\nIn brief\, it's a nine-week onlin e FREE curriculum that will introduce participants to the concepts of hu man-centered design and how this approach can be used to create innovati ve\, effective\, and sustainable solutions. \;\nDuring those nine wee ks\, you'll work online (and off) with a group of 2-6 people\, learning the HCD process by applying it to one of three pre-crafted real world de sign challenges. (You'll also have a choice to craft your own challenge. ) Each week you will explore the fundamental concepts through readings\, case studies\, and short videos. Then you'll meet in-person with your d esign team to get your hands dirty practicing the relevant human-centere d design methods. \;\n \;\nLet's get as many teams together as we can for the next course!

Augmented rea lity (AR) apps let people see and interact with digital content in their physical reality. Apple\, Facebook\, and Snapchat have pioneered early techniques and technologies to insert digital images (and interactions) on top of real-world objects\, but the possibilities of these channels r emain relatively unexplored. \;\n \;\nWe’re at an inflection point for user experience and interaction design. Whether or not we’ve planne d for it\, we’re all 3D designers now. It’s the perfect time to extend y our design skills into this new reality. \;\n \;\nJessica Outlaw o f The Extended Mind\, in partnership with Torch AR is offering a half-da y workshop for designers and design producers. In this hands-on training \, you will develop an understanding of immersive tech\, interaction des ign in 3D space\, and existing AR use cases. During the workshop\, you’l l concept\, plan\, and build your own AR experience prototype. \;\n&# 13\;\n*No augmented reality experience or coding is needed. Space is lim ited. \;\nDetails: \;\n \;\nWelcome 8:30 AM \;\nWorkshop 9:0 0 AM - 12:30 PM \;\n \;\nPart 1: The state of the immersive techno logy today. You will demo mobile AR technology and learn about the range of use cases. \;\n \;\nPart 2: Techniques for AR interaction desi gn. We will compare and contrast 2D &\; 3D design patterns. \;\n&# 13\;\nPart 3: Designing with Mobile AR.

Well-designed sounds can be exceptionally effective in conveying subtle distinctions\, emotion\, urgency\, and information without adding visual clutter. In this practi cal guide\, Amber Case and Aaron Day explain why sound design is critica l to the success of products\, environments\, and experiences. \;\n&# 13\;\nJust as visual designers have a set of benchmarks and a design lan guage to guide their work\, this book provides a toolkit for the auditor y experience\, improving collaboration for a wide variety of stakeholder s\, from product developers to composers\, user experience designers to architects. You’ll learn a complete process for designing\, prototyping\ , and testing sound. \;\n \;\nIn two parts\, this guide includes:& #13\;\n \;\n・Past\, present\, and upcoming advances in sound design&# 13\;\n・Principles for designing quieter products \;\n・Guidelines for intelligently adding and removing sound in interactions \;\n・When to use voice interfaces\, how to consider personalities\, and how to ・build a knowledge map of queries \;\n・Working with brands to create unique and effective audio logos that will ・speak to your customers \;\n・Ad ding information using sonification and generative audio \;\n \;\n About the authors: \;\n \;\nAmber Case studies the interaction bet ween humans and computers and how our relationship with information is c hanging the way cultures think\, act\, and understand their worlds. Case has spoken\, performed and written about the future of sound design at conferences and events around the world. Case is also the author of Calm Technology (O'Reilly\, 2015). She lives in Portland\, Oregon and online @caseorganic. \;\n \;\nAaron Day (who will not be in attendance) has been designing sound experiences and interfaces since 1998.

As a result\, we’ve all begun to feel the pinch o f “the cost of free.” \;\n \;\nIn 2018 some of us started pushing back. People like former Google Design Ethicist Tristan Harris and group s like the Center for Humane Technology sought to make our digital tools more human-centered\, more accountable and maybe a little less less pow erful -- and their views flipped from fringe to the mainstream in what h as been called a “techlash.” \;\n \;\nOn January 29\, we’ll gather for a hands-on look at how design is at the heart of this issue: the bo ttomless newsfeeds\, the limited menu choices\, the proliferating Autopl ay function\, notifications set to “ON” by default\, and all the intermi ttent variable rewards that turn our phones into slot machines with dopa mine payouts. \;\n \;\nWe’ll examine our own relationships to our devices and the apps we can’t stop looking at. And we’ll explore what a truly human-centered digital ecosystem could look like. \;\n \;\nP CDT organizer Patrick Sharbaugh will be joined by Dr. Dan Rubin\, a Port land clinical psychologist who specializes in mindfulness-based psychoth erapy and is an adjunct professor of psychology of Maitripa College\, wh ere he teaches courses on the intersection of psychology and Buddhism. D an and Patrick are both active members of the Community for Humane Techn ology\, the outreach arm of the Center for Humane Technology whose aim i s to align technology to humanity's best interests. \;\n \;\nBring your mobile device.
