Building Networks for Good - CAPS2015 WorkshopLee-Sean Huang
What happens when people come together to take collective action without needing traditional organisational and institutional structures? What tools and strategies do we need for these “Networks for Good” to thrive? In this workshop, designer, storyteller, and community-builder Lee-Sean Huang (Purpose) will explore these questions by drawing from his own experiences building international networks like UX for Good, The Awesome Foundation, and Wisdom Hackers.
A short, garbled wrap up of Planning-ness 2013 in Boston, MA. It's not meant to be comprehensive of the entire conference, but should hopefully give you a little flavor for the event. It's a fun one y'all.

Introduction to WRD 530: Digital Storytellingldush
Day 1 slides from Lisa Dush's Summer 2015 graduate course at DePaul University. Gives an overview of the history and process of digital storytelling, and introduces some related forms of community and organizational new media storytelling.
HikeStorming was developed to offer people a new way to both get in better shape and develop ideas by creatively combining fitness (namely hiking) and brainstorming.
This presentation was prepared for the inaugural meeting of Digital Humanities Collective (DHC)--a student organization based at the University of Michigan School of Information--in 2013.
The Journey to Now and Beyond - Communications Laura Dunkley
How far have we come? Where are we going? A glimpse into the past for graphic design & communications, digital disruption, content marketing (planning, content, distribution), and best practices. Presentation & Workshop for Brock University Masters Class - Foundations of Sustainability Science and Society - Environmental Communications. Nov. 2016
This is the deck from a talk I gave at the June 2011 SheSays conference on digital anthropology and user research. It covers my thoughts on new ways of making, customer development, and a few tips we might take out of the anthropological handbook.
Digital Culture and the Shaking Hand of ChangeMichael Edson
The presentation shows how to create and use a "problem space" to organize complex challenges. The central metaphor for the talk is the "civic handshake" — a process by which different parts of society cooperate through the informal exchange of information and the sharing of responsibilities.

Na co si dát v Javascriptu pozor? - Barcamp Hradec Králové 2015angular-cz
JavaScript je jazyk, se kterým se všichni občas potkáme, ale ne vždy se chová tak, jak bychom očekávali. Na první pohled vypadá kód v JS podobně jako v jiných jazycích, ale výsledek jeho spuštění je často jiný. Pojďme si projít odlišnosti jazyka a konstrukce, které často působí problémy a nedorozumnění. Přednášet bude Milan Lempera a Víťa Plšek (angular.cz)
Study: The Future of VR, AR and Self-Driving CarsLinkedIn
We asked LinkedIn members worldwide about their levels of interest in the latest wave of technology: whether they’re using wearables, and whether they intend to buy self-driving cars and VR headsets as they become available. We asked them too about their attitudes to technology and to the growing role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the devices that they use. The answers were fascinating – and in many cases, surprising.
This SlideShare explores the full results of this study, including detailed market-by-market breakdowns of intention levels for each technology – and how attitudes change with age, location and seniority level. If you’re marketing a tech brand – or planning to use VR and wearables to reach a professional audience – then these are insights you won’t want to miss.

Introduction to Pop Up Design Studios: An Approach to Culture Change Meg Lee Weir
I designed a way to give people a voice in large companies by launching a series of pop-up design studios. It let people creatively express their perspectives and crowd sourced ideas from those who were impacted. By being a temporary place, the pop up studios let people feel free to experiment with ideas and jumpstart their thinking by creating together.

Collective Story connects people through stories. It’s a toolkit for creating simple, low-fidelity public space interventions that promote civic engagement, critical thinking and intergenerational storytelling in public spaces, queues or waiting areas.
People First of Peterborough Annual Conference Keynote Presentation May 27, 2...LiveWorkPlay
Keenan Wellar was the keynote presenter at this year's annual conference which drew 100 delegates from across Ontario. The presentation was focused on identifying motivations for LiveWorkPlay to support the development of a People First chapter in Ottawa. The main reason is a belief in the importance of people with intellectual disabilities as self-advocates and their right to self-determination and full citizenship.
Collective Story connects people through stories. It’s a toolkit for creating simple, low-fidelity public space interventions that promote civic engagement, critical thinking and intergenerational storytelling in public spaces, queues or waiting areas. The toolkit includes a how-to guidebook and stencils for easy poster-making. We piloted the project with a series of storytelling prompts distributed across New York City, garnering a strong response through social media channels like Twitter and Instagram.
Communities are at the core of the human experience and our design practice, yet we don’t always put the same level of active effort in designing our communities as we do in designing the products and services we make. We live and work embedded in networks of other people and systems. Communities are defined by shared norms and culture, and have a massive impact on how we live, think and act. Why leave this up to chance? We are all stewards of the many communities we engage in every day, and we need to take an active role in mindfully crafting these communities. So, how do we craft better communities? What does better even mean? This talk is a reflection on my experiences building and crafting communities at a variety of scales from the personal to the global. I will discuss my successes and failures, my fears and delights, as well as lessons learned along the way. We are nothing without the communities we inhabit, so let’s make them great together.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
