emotional archives

What: Talk and discussion on Emotional Design. Why are people willing to stand in line for days and pay hundreds of dollars for an iPhone? Why do we spend three times the money to buy a trinket in a foreign country that we would never buy at home? What elements of emotional design will you incorporate in your next project?

Where: NextPage (Draper, UT)
When: 7:00pm on Thursday, Sept 13
Who: Hosted by the local CHI chapter; discussion led by Xinru Page. All invited; no charge for admission.

“Whenever I think about designing something to have a better chance of being contagious, the issue of authenticity invariably comes up. All things being equal, we’re more likely to tell people about the authentic things in our lives. When was the last time you joined a cause because it was hollow, shallow, and fake? Authenticity matters.”
Diego Rodriguez on “What’s Authentic?”
