- 9. This is not a ‘how to’ presentation.
- 10. In fact, that’s what’s been bugging me.
- 13. To me, it’s like a return to the 1990’s when all our conversations were about how to build stuff.
- 15. And we’d been making such progress with asking why, and for whom…
- 19. What we’re told vs. what we experience
- 20. The many faces of the website
- 21. My phone and the network
- 22. Other channels
- 23. Language across the ecosystem
- 25. Finance, servicing, downtime, replacements, upgrades, insurance…
- 26. When I’m abroadBeing abroad
- 27. Or out of rangeOut of signal range
- 31. Making features work is a usability thing
- 32. Making features work is a usability thing
- 33. But even then, how far do we take this?

- 40. This is all good. We are moving beyond features to experience. We’re starting to look at: • the spaces between features • and the kinds of connections that exist between features • and the systems in which they operate (those internal and external to the service provider)
- 41. But how do we start to unpack what experience is?
- 47. The irrational (Alan Greenspan)
- 56. Autonomy / independence Competence / effectance Relatedness / belongingness Self-actualising / meaning Security / control Money / luxury Influence / popularity Physical thriving / bodily Self-esteem / self respect Pleasure / stimulation
- 69. A good place to start? Become very sensitive to your relationship to things.
- 71. Developing your design consciousness
- 72. What is your history? What are your politics? What are your economics? What is your culture? What kind of society would you like to live in? What is your context of use? Are you an early, mid or late adopter? Are you hands-on, disconnected or impulsive? What are your routines? What do you hold dear? What do you hate in other people? What makes you envious? What did you believe differently as a child? What do you turn to in despair? What makes you dance spontaneously? How do you like architecture to make you feel? What do you base your judgements of others on? What would you write a book about? What kind of personae are you? How is this different to other people?
- 75. Develop an intuition for recognising when simple things are simple and when they are hiding complexity.
- 89. Our interpretation of findings from testing is limited by our sensitivity to people, diversity and our own imagination
- 92. 1 + 1 = 3
- 94. The art of UX is pulling all these threads together and crafting it into something special.
- 95. The art of UX is pulling all these threads together and crafting it into something special. The journey from features to experiences.
