<p>Seriously wondering if Nathan&#8217;s considered exploring @businessmodeldesign&#8230; #ixdasf #redux</p>
<p>IxD&#8217;s are the most well posed to make make meaning happen&#8230;. we have models, resaerch, and more&#8230; (need to get this slide pressie)<br />
Freedom and Security can have different expressions based on prioritization &amp; meaning</p>
<p>Nathan Shedroff: we need to reframe &#8220;Less is More&#8221; as &#8220;More for Less&#8221; for everyone outside the sustainability &amp; design worlds #ixdasf #redux</p>
<p>15 core meanings: accomplishment, enlightenment, beauty, creation, duty, justice&#8230; (pic to come later) #ixdasf #redux</p>
<p>Most decisions (buying decisions) is based on emotions (emotional engagement). #ixdasf #redux</p>
<p>Meaning is the hulu hoop around us. expanding out to values, emotions, price, &amp; features. #ixdasf #redux</p>
<p>Meaning is the deepest connection that can be made between people or people &amp; objects. #ixdasf #redux</p>
<p>We can be taught not to be wasteful. NYC was great for training me about what is recycled and what isn&#8217;t. #ixdasf #redux</p>
<p>What is the intent behind consumption? We aren&#8217;t going to stop consumption. #ixdasf #redux</p>
<p>It&#8217;s not just about products anymore. #ixdasf #redux</p>
<p>It&#8217;s just not the case anymore to seperate business, design, and sustainability. #ixdasf #redux</p>
<p>Up Next: &#8220;Meaningful Innovation Relies on Interaction &amp; Service Design&#8221;, Nathan Shedroff #ixdasf #redux</p>
<p>There&#8217;s an expectation to reply now but that wasn&#8217;t true 10 years ago. #ixdasf #redux</p>
<p>&#8220;Is Twitter the new God?&#8221; &#8220;Yes&#8221; #ixdasf #redux</p>
<p>&#8220;This map is probably made of conjecture&#8230;&#8221; Talking about AT&amp;T&#8217;s map</p>
<p>&#8220;There&#8217;s too much stuff. We live in a stuff-a-lanch.&#8221; Charlie Brooker #ixdasf #redux</p>
<p>RT I and the rest of the @ixdasf audience is fucking captivated by Ben Fullerton. You could hear a pin drop, yet there&#8217;s also laugh breaks.</p>
<p>Wasn&#8217;t there a TED talk about having time alone? Actually it was about having a sabatical. #ixdasf #redux<br />
You could never announce being alone in 140 character like they did in Medievil/Renn Times. #ixdasf #redux</p>
<p>Interaction 11 Website for whomever is interested: http://bit.ly/avREsj #ixdasf #redux</p>

<p>Cheeky wayfinding signs by the @ixdasf crew. #fb http://yfrog.com/jor0bj</p>
<p>#ixdasf #ixd10 red#ux Raphael Grignani &#8211; review daily so that get essence immediately. If leave to end &#8211; lose details.</p>
<p>Wondering how @kshimmel&#8217;s work can help abuse victims get back in touch their bodies&#8230;. (NTS/Random thought) #ixdasf #redux</p>
<p>RT @alabut: @ixdasf speaker info: http://bit.ly/9Elz5Z and @Grignani. (Thanks for posting that. Not sure I got a good photo on that.)<br />
RT @steveportigal: I like how Raphael emphasizes our (dis)comfort issue in these non Western fieldwork contexts #ixdasf #Nokia #culture</p>
<p>You really don&#8217;t go anywhere to find people living in harsh conditions (thinking of trafficking victims) #ixdasf #redux<br />
OMGWTFAR?!! slides/video: http://bit.ly/omgwtfar (thx @quietaction &amp; @candelight for live tweeting!) #ixdasf #ixdar #ar<br />
HIV, leading cause of death in women: UNAIDS http://post.ly/RAU9<br />
As a westerner be aware of your own personal boundaries and what&#8217;s comfortable for you when researching. #ixdasf #redux<br />
#ixdasf #ixd10 red#ux Raphael Grignani &#8211; deeply understanding the people you are designing for&#8230;get in there with them.<br />
RT @jmk: Amazing turnout for the #ixdasf redUX http://flic.kr/p/7HV7QA (I was trying to do the same thing with my laptop&#8217;s cam.)<br />

Increasing efficiency can be something small. #ixdasf #redux<br />
Sound and visuals can be overwhelming. It&#8217;s good to know the intention and layer accordingly. White space = good #ixdasf #redux<br />
She mentions getting involved in choreography. Given my dance background I am curious. #ixdasf #redux<br />
&#8220;The interface is my body&#8230;&#8221; (Interesting thought&#8230; thinking xBox Natal) #ixdasf #redux<br />
&#8220;Nationally, HIV/AIDS is the leading cause of death among black women between the ages of 25 and 34.&#8221; #WTF?<br />
Both interaction design and dance utilize order, patterns, relationships, taxonomy and time. #ixdasf #redux<br />
Dance and IxD have a lot in common with regards to emotion and experience you are trying to convey. #ixdasf #redux<br />
Up Next: &#8220;Environments; The Future of Interaction Design&#8221; by Kendra Shimmell (who just moved out here a week ago) #ixdasf #redux #ixdar<br />
The US is no where in the top ten for AR research #ixdasf #redux #ixdar<br />
Talk of putting an LED light on a contact lens without making us blind (we&#8217;re becoming cyborgs) #ixdasf #redux #ixdar<br />
Smartphone penetration in US at 42% #ixdasf #redux #ixdar<br />

Recent Mobile Tech Inventions: Camera, reasonable connectivity, GPS, compass, accelerometer #ixdasf #redux #ixdar<br />
IN 2009 searches on Google for AR skyrocketed. Why? #ixdasf #redux #ixdar<br />
Augmented sound, location, space, movement&#8230;. shift of reality&#8230;enhanced experience #ixdasf #redux #ixdar<br />
Background on AR: http://bit.ly/lTgY4 #ixdasf #redux #ixdar<br />
Augmented reality was coined in 1992 #ixdasf #redux #ixdar<br />
Augumented Reality: Is it Real? Should we care? Presented by Kevin Cheng #ixdasf #redux<br />

Document statements of need. #ixdasf #redux<br />
Circling and pulling out data/patterns within the transcripts&#8230; then doing clustering w/ post-its #ixdasf #redux<br />
What are the patterns that are emerging&#8230; But as @jeffparks said people are more than data&#8230; #ixdasf #redux<br />
Storytelling around the data. What did you see? What does it mean? (thinking about @jeffpark&#8217;s vid) #ixdasf #redux</p>
<p>.@steveportigal up next at #ixdasf #redux with &#8220;Well, we&#8217;ve done all the research now what?&#8221;<br />
RT @alabut: First @ixdasf speaker&#8217;s info: Jamin.org &amp; @Jamin (For Service Design talk) #ixdasf #redux<br />

Question marks in blueprint is when when the patient isn&#8217;t having an experience with the &#8220;product&#8221; = opportunity #ixdasf #redux<br />
You have to think more holisticly about service design than interaction design. #ixdasf #redux #servicedesign<br />
What&#8217;s the experience people might want? Design their experience. Then Design the service experience. #ServiceDesgin #ixdasf #redux<br />
Service blueprint&#8230; NTS&#8230; blueprint of service for food delivery process&#8230;.?<br />
Define terms &amp; patient journey. Defining needs &amp; emotions (high for patients in beginning&#8230; but less through time)<br />
Dicovery of Information &amp; Environment, participation, tools, etc &amp; how they work (or don&#8217;t)&#8230; #ixdasf #redux<br />
Service Design = conciously designing based on &#8220;human approach&#8221; #ixdasf #reduxSFIxDA Redux today. Expect major Tweeting action around 2pm PST. Thank you in advance to hanging in with me.</p>

<li>Develop &#8211; Collaborate. Context is important.</li>
<li>Test &#8211; Three types of testing: automated, manual, and testing with people.</li>
