About This Event

Location provided on RSVP (send RSVPs to nyc-rsvp@ixda.org).

Description:
"After nearly eight years designing web sites, online and desktop applications, I dropped the browser and embraced devices. I wanted to explore designing for different physical platforms because the Internet, and digital experiences more broadly, were moving beyond just the PC. Since then I have worked almost exclusively with industrial designers, mechanical and electrical engineers. In this
presentation, I will share xperiences and insights into what interaction designers and industrial designers have to learn from each other."
