The document discusses the challenges of designing products in today's environment of rapid technological disruption and change. It notes that the adoption of new technologies is happening at an unprecedented pace, and that users now expect to cocreate and modify products. This shifting landscape requires designers to create more adaptable and loosely defined products that can evolve with input from many actors in the ecosystem. Orchestrating tightly controlled experiences becomes difficult as products spread online and are influenced by diverse perspectives.
Midway through a project, a client of ours recently said "One thing I'm learning is that it's ok to give up on the desktop experience once it stops making sense". This wasn't an isolated incident. In fact, i'm beginning to think desktop web sites stopped making sense quite a while ago. We've just had nothing viable to replace them with. Mobile apps have given us a glimpse, but I think they're merely a glimpse into something bigger.
Mobile isn't merely a new stage in the evolution of the web, it's not even merely a new context, it's the very early stages of an entirely new system. A system that has already started to shape our environment, affect the way we live, how we choose to connect with others, and how we're able to spend our time. A system that is also slowly unravelling our assumptions and causing us to question the very reason we build web sites, why people visit them, and where the true value of the web actually lies.
Presented by Stephanie Rieger at Breaking Development in Orlando, Florida on April 17, 2012.
The time is 2020. The inflection point has long passed. Most web traffic is now coming from some manner of portable device. And if Google Chairman Eric Schmidt (and many others’) predictions have come true, we will have truly reached time where “…[technology] will just be seamless. It will just be there. The web will be everything, and it will be nothing. It will be like electricity.”
This presentation challenges us to think about the role of the web going forward. What steps must we take to build a world where interactions with the web are truly “seamless”? What would a seamless web even look like? How can we ensure the web remains strong amidst all the new technologies that are on the way.

Context is often cited as the single most important factor in design for the mobile medium. Mobile devices are of course 'mobile', but they are also small, always on, always with us, and can instantly connect us to the people we love. Mobile services must therefore be simple, social, and well-focussed--enabling us to quickly get things done on even the smallest screens.
This is all well and good, but mobile devices have changed. They may be mobile, but many have already stopped being 'phones'—nor do they resemble what we traditionally think of as computers. This presentation will explore how our use, and perception of mobile devices is changing, and how these changes may impact how we should design for them going forward.
Some people say the web is dying, but I believe it’s just getting started. And what will kick it into overdrive is the Physical Web: the ability to discover, engage, and interact with smart devices (or that “dumb” tree over there) using nothing more than a browser.
In this presentation, we explore the impact these new capabilities may have on the way we design and think about this (increasingly near) future web.

Innovation is driven by hope and fear. By humans dreaming of a better place.
Emerging technologies are maintaining scale and deflation, accelerating the pace of change, having a profound impact on how societies, institutions, businesses and individuals interact.
Emerging societal, economical and political realities are reshaping how we perceive the future, mapping dynamics closer to those of emerging markets.
Emerging values of trust, openness and nodal relationships are re-structuring the agora, the marketplace of ideas and goods.
The emergence of new identities, facilitated by technologies and enabled by new values, is the new revolution. A peer-to-peer revolution.

Understanding UX: Designing for multiple devices - GA London, 18 Jan 2013Anna Dahlström
Slides from my 1 hour class on January 18th at General Assembly in London during the Understanding UX day.
ABSTRACT
The rise in mobiles and tablets have changed the way we consume and interact with content, but also the way we design and what we base our design approach on. This class will teach you about the shift in user expectations, behaviour- and consumption patterns and what that means for designing products that will be used on multiple devices. Coming out of it you'll be equipped with guiding principles and tools to tackle the multiple device jungle.

What the numbers tell us - Dublin Web Summit, 18 Oct 2012Anna Dahlström
Numbers on their own don't tell us much but put into context they start develop a meaning and can help us make informed decisions, guide the design and development process as well as bring aspects to life that we otherwise wouldn’t be able to see. Using data and numbers we can create meaningful connections and something to relate to. But it can also help us build experiences that surprise and delight and go further towards achieving our objectives.
Libraries are about discovery. Giving people a safe and comfortable place to dream, think, and create is very important because it gives them a chance to explore various technologies and educational opportunities that they can use to enrich their lives. STEAM education refers to teaching and learning, mostly hands-on, in the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics.
Learn in this webinar how St. Petersburg College’s Innovation Lab managed to incorporate the STEAM education framework via their well-received and grant supported Maker Boot Camp. In the first Maker Boot Camp, children between 10 and 14 years old learned video game design, how to build a synthesizer and control sounds/voltage with littleBits, 3D design/printing, robotics, basic circuitry and electronics, virtual reality, creating holograms, and more. In this webinar:
- Understand what it takes to create and manage a collaborative learning space.
- Explore a variety of technologies and tools to help enhance learning.
- Learn how Maker Boot Camp was organized and how it continues to excite people of all ages.
- Realize the importance of partnering with businesses and other organizations.
If your job is to make things for the web, and the company you work for doesn’t build fitness trackers, or robots, or smart light bulbs, or a cloud service that aims to connect all these things, you could be forgiven for not caring all that much about today's Internet of Things. My aim with this talk is to shift the conversation away from things and back to people. In doing so, I hope to also arm you with tools to better understand, and find your place, within this complex but fascinating landscape.

With each passing day, our relationship with computers grows more personal. The touch of a human hand has replaced the mouse, and conversational interfaces now seem set to replace all manner of button or conventional interface. Is this pure hype, or a true step change in the evolution of personal computing?
In this workshop we will look at the current state of conversational interfaces, the challenges and benefits they bring, and where things are heading.
The web was first conceived 25 years ago, by an Englishman. Fifteen years later, as the first crop of dot.coms were going bust, close to 60% of its users (and all Alexa "top 20" sites) came from developed nations. Fast forward to today, and the picture is strikingly different. Almost half the Alexa "top 20" now comes from emerging economies. Economies where close to 3 billion people have yet to use the web, but thanks to mobile--won't have to wait much longer to discover it. This presentation will introduce you to fascinating and innovative services that are re-shaping the web to serve the consumers of tomorrow. Driven by mobile, the power of personal relationships, and the breakneck pace of globalisation, these services provide a glimpse into the business models, opportunities and challenges we will face, when growing a truly global web.

Whether it’s designing software or the interior of a modern building, Juan Sanchez and Megan Moore must always rely on collaboration to carry things across the finish line. With a mix of skills, Juan and Megan set out alongside other talented individuals with a goal to create a shared workspace that could support local companies. The space, called Assembly, was no small feat, especially when a lot of critical aspects were new challenges to take on.
While the space is built for collaboration, the most impactful lessons came before opening Assembly’s doors. Juan and Megan will discuss their experiences guiding the creation of a shared workspace, how it affected their growth as creative professionals and what lessons they took away working with other talented people.
Why are mobiles important to your business strategy and how can you use them to drive your business growth? There's one simple idea you need to know...
New sensor based Web Standards developments have punched a hole in the web that is letting the real world leak into the browser. The getUserMedia API now lets us access cameras and microphones and JSARToolkit and javascript based Natural Feature Tracking like the examples from ICG Graz University have shown that browsers can now be taught to perceive the world around them. Combine this with the <canvas> and WebGL and you have a real working model for a Web Standards based Augmented Reality.
On top of this we also have OGCs Sensor Web Enablement and new developments like the Sensor API and the rapid spread of networked sensors and wireless Arduino-ised devices. Massively distributed dynamic immersive visualisation is now the new structural form for the modern web.

A presentation for the CATS 2010 Conference (http://cats.cdl.edu/online_2010/)
How do we deal with the never ending onslaught of new technologies, resources, and media? How can we face this brave new world without a sense of dread? Is there an app for that? "Keeping up" is a myth, and the way of dealing with this is creating, sustaining, and being in your extended networks of friends, colleagues, and even people you don't know. Likewise, one cannot readily assess the value of new technology from the outside "looking in." This presentation will lead you through a range of examples of ways to practice more "being there-ness" so you can face the technology fire hose with a child-like sense of wonder.

For Access 2009 conference. Grab a bucket, it's raining data! Library data, research data, primary data, mashed-up data, raw data, cooked data, our data, other people's data... But which bucket should we grab? And can we really, truly fit all the data in one bucket? And don't we risk turning data into sludge if we mix it all together in our bucket? Finding a bucket is the easy part. Grappling with data acquisition, modeling, discovery, and reuse is hard. How will we do it? Can we?

The Value of Leadership, the Leadership of Value: Remaining Relevant in times...Peter Bromberg
Script and supporting materials at: http://peterbromberg.com/sla
Throw out those 5 year strategic plans, change ain't what it used to be. Change no longer happens in slow, predictable, macro waves that allow us the time to make and execute big plans. Change now happens in a continual series of microbursts, each one potentially changing our experiences, behaviors, perceptions, and expectations in unexpected but potentially powerful ways.
A new type of leadership is called for. A leadership that not only provides a map for change, but also empowers people in your organization to throw away the map and respond to clients' needs in the moment. A leadership that questions best practices, holding only lightly to the ways of the past. A leadership that monitors societal trends and embraces small innovations and good ideas no matter where they come from.
With the mass of digital "stuff" growing around us every day and simple tools for self-organization evolving beyond individuals into communities of suggestions, is the curatorial prerogative itself becoming a social object?
This paper will examine the act of association, the art of framing and the participatory nature of robots in creating artifacts and story-telling in projects like Flickr Galleries, the API-based Suggestify project (which provides the ability to suggest locations for other people's photos) and the increasing number of bespoke (and often paper-based) curatorial productions.

Today’s 'smart devices' are a product of the technology and mental models of our past. From a connected lightbulb to a robot vacuum, using most of these devices requires a native app. This in turn greatly limits their contexts of use. Can we really expect users to download an app to interact with a random ’thing’ they encounter at the mall, a space they explore for an hour at the museum, or a city they will only visit for a day? What devices could we build, what 'smart' environments could we enable if users could simply discover, “walk up and use”(and then if needed, abandon) these objects and environments as they do a web site?
This workshop will discuss two new technologies--Physical Web and Web Bluetooth--that can enable on-demand interaction with physical things and spaces using no more than a browser.

Designing for diversity - how to stop worrying and embrace the Android revol...yiibu
It took 16 years for smartphone penetration to reach 1 billion people. Analysts believe it will take only 3 years to reach the next billion. The devices these consumers buy will be incredibly diverse, yet many will run on Android; a platform that now sees more than 1.5 million activations per day.
In this presentation, we explore the fascinating rise of Android around the globe. From dual SIM phones in Indonesia, to dual screen e-ink devices in Russia and crowd-sourced platform modifications in China, we will discover the role open source has played in Android's popularity and how to design for such a diverse environment.
