Editor's Notes
- What is point? What are you trying to say? Why did you join the Pixel Lab?ß The role of the creative is getting bigger: to create, finance and distribute stories across multiple platforms. No longer can we rely on someone else’s ‘shop window’ to display our content. Now we have to take responsibility for finding, connecting and activating our audiences. Context helps to make content more engaging and relevant; you must find ways to weave your media into the lives of your users. However we tend to paint a rosy picture of their attitude towards our offerings and the quality of the experience we provide. Mapping user journeys is a great way of identifying the potential of better experiences. But, how do we map the journey without making it into a fairy tale?
- Over 330 projects since PttP lab two years ago.
- They reveal a gap between “How it should be” and “How it is”. It reminds us what happens when reality strikes. We identify with the scenarios. We recognize the failing.

- When we develop a concept we go on a journey. This journey creates a hierarchy. We often use that hierarchy to explain it, to ourselves and to others. When designing complex systems, sometimes we struggle to find the write way in for the reader. We want to say it all. We want to give a sense of hierachy, but all too often from the perspective of the creator and not the user. By taking a user centric viewpoint of the system we understand what it does as opposed to what it might do. We place it in context.
- Why, because we can affect more of the touch points between us and the audience.

- It was clever how it tricked me into confessing all the “good” reasons for why have never got involved before and then it made doing things in the real world so god damn easy that it was almost embarrassing to admit that I hadn’t done anything pragmatic before.
