Delete all but the first line and second paragraph. Then put a link to her CV if people want to read it. Also, a picture of her.

In terms of prototypes for an journal edition, I have used the 'objectology' method, where participants bring an object that relates somehow to their research, tell stories and map them together with resonances and dissonances.

Having worked in academia, the most common thing is powerpoint presentations with a white background and FULL of text. Boring and impossible to read in the time it spends on the board.

Accessibility is a massive area of course - just the simple how of it is enough of a task. Again what interests me are the ethics of accessibility, how it can be used for ulterior motives (e.g. gerrymandering). One example I've encountered with my wife, who speaks English as a second language, is Sky, who regularly charge bank accounts of people with non...

Specific terminology, methods, technologies, tools, through which actual content designers do this.

Hi Robert, a lot of my encounters with this were in the technology context, especially Internet of Things and Smart objects. Concerning user journeys specifically, a common occurrence is that while designing with one type of user in mind, problems are created for other possible users, issues of accessibility etc. One example were the consent forms we designed...

Another interesting point is that, users might not know what they need, or not know they need something until a service exists that provides it.
So there is one issue of streamlining/refining/simplifying a service, and another of creating a service, and in turn, creating the need for it.
One more thing I learnt working with designers, that while they...

The main one us usually time. Inevitably you will have to go beyond your allotted work/responsibilities, and often encounter unforeseen obstacles or problems. In the team involved external partners then facilitating quick and effective communication can also be difficult.

Hello everyone,
I'm Luke, currently a baker at Mokoko Bristol. I've worked in academia for the past 10 years and am looking for a new direction in copywriting/publishing/editorial fields. Furloughed at home and thought this would be the perfect time to take a course and learn something new. I'm hoping to get to grips with the specifics of what content...

I think that this challenges all of the boundaries being talked about in the discussion, between artist, medium, tools, methods, and audiences. They all become entangled, and the same process can be iterated so many times with different results, that the potential for original creations is near infinite. I am attracted to these ideas not just for democratizing...

Hello all,
I am a newcomer to coding, but have always had an interest in the subject. I have just finished a PhD in philosophy and am looking to broaden my learning horizons, and see what coding language is actually all about.
