UXnet comes to London
You’re invited to the first monthly social meeting in London for the User Experience Design community.
Date: Thursday, 2 Dec 2004
Time: 7:00 PM
Place: University College London Interaction Centre (UCLIC)
31/32 Alfred Place, near Goodge Street Station
Full directions available on the UCLIC website
Cost: FREE
RSVP required. Please email to confirm your attendance. This will ensure you can get into UCLIC.
The evening will begin with a presentation by Kevin Cheng of OK/Cancel. Kevin’s presentation will be followed by socialising, networking, and engaging at College Arms, 18 Store Street, right around the corner. We’re also happy to announce the UXnet guest of honour for the evening: Louis Rosenfeld, co-author of Information Architecture for the World Wide Web.
Presentation Title: The User Experience Community is Thinking Too Big Summary: Blurred lines, segregation, overlap: these are all terms used to describe the state of the user experience community. Dozens of organizations exist, each claiming to represent some or all of the user experience community, and each claiming some unique value. Is the solution to create a new organization to bring them all together, or are we thinking too big?
This is a UXnet event and was organized through the coordinated efforts and resources of AIfIA, ASIS&T, AIGA, IxDG, STC UK, UK UPA and BCS-HCI, LondonIA, London Usability and UCLIC. If you represent an organization that you feel should also be part of future UXnet event coordination in London, or an organization that would like to host future UXnet events, please contact .

“Blurred lines, segregation, overlap”
I agree.
Do you have permission to post your notes or outline after the presentation?
As for “thinking too big”, I’m not sure. I’m more concerned with the lack of critical thinking, and the overwhelming amount of wishful thinking. ;)

The event was a smashing success! Thanks to everyone who came. A special thanks to Kevin Cheng for presenting and Lou Rosenfeld for giving an introduction to UXnet.
If you missed the event, don’t worry! There will be many more. Stay tuned to unraveled for UXnet London updates.
