Good Morning! - Rachel Hinman and I am a mobile design strategist at Adaptive Path. I’ve been working in the mobile space for the last 4 years - and the ideas that I want to share today were inspired by a project that I recently lead that was all about envisioning the future of mobile experiences.. Visioning projects are interesting beasts... right? They kinda require that you dream of another way to experience things.... Imagining different realities

“ ... before Twitter, I spent 12 years working in the dispatch industry, which are couriers, taxis, 911. And these industries are concerned with status - what people are doing right now.

Discovering the Senses
Swing for the fences when thinking about the senses

Sensors, GPS, touchscreens, gestural interfaces, open application platforms... oh my! Product and technology innovations are enabling new and exciting opportunities for mobile experiences - experiences that have the power to be more empathetic to the human experience with implications beyond the mobile context.
Realizing these opportunities is a daunting task. One that requires designers to work outside the contours of our own assumptions and view the world through new lenses.
Using cues from Dorothy's fanciful journey in the Wizard of Oz, Rachel shares her unique perspective on topics such as mobile service design, mobile social networks, and mobile interface design and offers insight into how designers can make the most of the opportunities abound in mobile and beyond. less
