<description>The questions we ask ourselves at the idea generation stage of design play a critical role in the nature of the ideas generated. Bold questions beget bold ideas; and incrementalism begins in the same way. In this talk we will look at how problem framing and reframing can impact the ideas teams generate, and how problem statements can be ‘tuned’ to better deliver feasible concepts within your organisation. We’ll look at some recent examples from our work at Meld Studios as well as some well-known case studies from around the world.

<description>This talk reflects interests and confusions in user experience design by comparing two approaches to UX, experience as principle or as the subject, and by introducing “logic of behavior” and “aesthetics of experience” developed by Xin at Jiangnan University. It will also discuss how design may participate in the social and economic transformation of China.

Closing keynote: Attributes and aesthetics of experience

<description>Whether you’re drowning in data or struggling for insights the hardest thing can be getting a project out of the gate. Like Johnny Cash sang, the key is to take it “One Piece at a Time.” I’ll talk about ways to rethink starting (or re-starting) a project without getting overwhelmed.
