My stupid xfinity internet has been out all week so I didn’t get to post this on time. But I’m my grad studio now so I can post this lovely video about interaction design. I really loved the message of thinking deeply about why we’re designing and what we want to get out of it. I don’t like the idea of people always striving to do things faster and easier and that being the ultimate virtue of a product. If everything is easier or automated, what do we really want to do with our time? How is your ideal free time spent? If it’s laying around then I’m not really that impressed with the prospect. I know from winter breaks of the past that relaxing isn’t as enjoyable when you do it all day….
Sorry that was a weird rant. My point is that I like how this is striving for a more positive future.
