The DaVinci Code
I'm speaking at the first ever Interaction 08 conference in beautiful Savannah Georgia. Part of my talk will include references to Van Gogh and DaVinci. What do they have to do with my topic? Guess you'll have to wait to find out. Here's what I'll be talking about:
Experience Design, Convergence + The Digital Agency
Experience changes everything. A design shop creates a marketing
campaign. A marketing shop designs the user interface for a mainstream
video game console. A big brand agency coordinates the design and
construction of a concept retail experience. What’s going on?
This presentation will take a look at the increasingly blurring roles
of individuals and organizations as we pursue the planning, design and
development of experiences. We’ll discuss the evolution of skills and
backgrounds and attitudes that it takes to thrive in an increasingly
fragmented world where the lines between marketing, technology and even
design seem fuzzy. We’ll take a look at some social features we
designed for the Nasa website re-launch initiative and how we began
thinking past the browser and into the mobile environment.
See you in Savannah!


David, I met you with Max when he was with Buzz and I am still over here at Nielsen Online. I went to SCAD so if you need any advice about the city let me know. I was put on the waiting list for this conference but told chances are slim. I wish I they would have informed alumni a little earlier because it looks great. Always next year!
