My notes on Relly Annett-Baker talking at London IA - literally...
On Wednesday we held the latest London IA event hosted by Sense Worldwide in Soho, sponsored by Zebra People. Our first talk was by Relly Annett-Baker. In her second slide she issued an edict for no chewing, no running in the corridors, and no fiddling with electronic gadgets. That was my cue to do something I've been meaning to do for a while. Whilst my drawing isn't up to the standards of doing sketchnotes like Eva-Lotta or Lucy or Anna, here is a blog post made up entirely of my handwritten notes from Relly's talk...
Next...
Once I've converted my tedious new-fangled electronic notes into something I can publish as easily as this set of sometimes out-of-focus pictures, I'll have a more conventional blog post about Dan Lockton's talk...
“London IA: Notes from the talks”
Martin Belam, foreword by Ann McMeekin Carrier
London IA is a network of designers, information architects and thinkers. Since 2009 the group has been holding regular meetings featuring talks about UX, or of interest to UXers. This ebook is a compilation of my notes from those evenings, featuring talks by Andy Budd, Giles Colborne, Cennydd Bowles, Claire Rowland, Jason Mesut, Ben Bashford, Chris Heathcote, Dan Lockton, Relly Annett-Baker, Michael Blastland, Margaret Hanley and Richard Rutter amongst others. Topics covered range from ubicomp to psychology, from learning how to sketchnote to how to write a UX book, and how to improve digital design through diverse routes like copy-writing, designing for doubt, learning from music technology or taking care of typography.
“London IA: Notes from the talks” is available for Kindle for £2.47.
This is a new low for a currybet post... :-)
Looking forward to hearing about Dan Lockton's talk.
Well, I just wanted to prove I could be a prolific blogger even without the benefit of technology at my fingertips. I ought to go back and type it up for the alt text though...
