BEYOND SCREEN: USER EXPERIENCE FOR THE INTERNET OF THINGS Chris Jackson has a dream. It’s a dream where intelligent devices of all types communicate clearly with each other, CEOs see past their outdated business models, and user experience designers are freed from the confines of designing for the screen. At UXNZ, Chris is going to share his dream. He’ll talk about the potential of a new Internet of Things (IoT) and how user experience designers are well placed to help make this dream a reality.
