Half-Day Workshop on Calm Technology | UXLX Conference Lisbon, Portugal
The difference between an annoying technology and one that is helpful is how it engages our attention. Calm Technology is a framework for designing ubiquitous devices that engage our attention in an appropriate manner. The aim of Calm Technology is to provide principles that follow the human lifestyle and environment in mind, allowing technology to amplify humanness instead of taking it away. This workshop will cover how to use principles of Calm Technology to design the next generation of connected devices. We’ll look at notification styles, compressing information into other senses, and designing for the least amount of cognitive overhead. Participants will work in groups to solve a series of design challenges, including designing new products, 'calming down' a complex ones, communicating the principles of Calm Technology across an organization and team, and entering a product successfully into the marketplace. You’ll learn how to: Use principles of Calm Technology to design the next generation of connected devices. Design appropriate notification systems into both physical and software products Communicate the principles of Calm Technology to your across your organization and team Use methods of Calm Technology to design technology for generations, not seasons. Enter your product successfully into the marketplace. Who is the workshop for? This workshop is for anyone that actively builds or makes decisions about technology, especially user experience designers, product designers, managers, creative directors and developers. Attendees are encouraged to have some background in user experience design and look at http://calmtechnology.com/ before the workshop.

Notas do Editor
- Design the most interruptive product you can. And document it! We’ll use it later. Give 15 min and ask if people need more time. People should give 2 minute speeches during this time. Pen and paper only.
- And that’s why we need a calm technology

- You shouldn’t have to go through the Internet in order to turn on and off your lights. We are carrying around supercomputers in our pockets. We shoduldn’t be doing all of our processing in the cloud. Touching the network will become expensive. How few times can you go to the network?
