It’s just over one month until UX London. You should grab a ticket if you haven’t already!
The format of UX London is quite special. While the focus of each day is different—discovery, design, and delivery—each day unfolds like this…
There are four talks in the morning. You get your brain filled with ideas and learn from fantastic speakers. It’s a single track—everyone’s getting the same shared experience.
Then after a lunch, you choose from one of four workshops. Whatever you choose, it’s going to be hands-on. You can leave your laptop at home.
A day of listening to talks could get exhausting. A workshop that lasts all day could be even more exhausting. But somehow by splitting the day between both activities, the energy level is just right!
That said, we don’t want the day to end with everyone spread across four different workshop rooms. That’s why there’s one final talk at the end of each day.
These closing talks are a bit different to the morning talks. Whereas the focus of the morning talks is on practical skills that you can apply straight away, the closing talks are an opportunity to sit back and have your mind expanded. They’ll be fun and thought-provoking.
Paula Zuccotti is closing out day one with a talk about two of her projects: Every Thing We Touch and Future Archeology:
This talk invites audiences to reconsider the meaning of the objects they encounter every day and reflect on what their possessions might reveal about who we are and what we value, both now and in the years to come.
Sarah Hyndman will wrap up day two with a fun interactive talk about your senses:
Join a live expedition into our inner world to explore why we see, feel and remember.
Finally, Rachel Coldicutt is going to finish UX London with a rallying cry:
Introducing the Society of Hopeful Technologists and discussing how, in modern technology development, your practice is probably more political than you realise.
I can’t wait! Get yourself a ticket for a day or for all three days.
