DEE ARLISE CHILDROUS, PLAINTIFF,v.MEDICAL TECHNICIAN BIRKEL, ET AL. DEFENDANTS.
This cause is before the court for merit review of the plaintiff's complaint. The court is required by 28 U.S.C. §1915A to "screen" the plaintiff's complaint, and through such process to identify and dismiss any legally insufficient claim, or the entire action if warranted. A claim is legally insufficient if it "(1) is frivolous, malicious, or fails to state a claim upon which relief may be granted; or (2) seeks monetary relief from a defendant who is immune from such relief."
The plaintiff has filed his lawsuit pursuant to 42 U.S.C. §1983 against three defendants at the Pontiac Correctional Center including Medical Technician Birkel, Lieutenant Cletus Shaw and Dr. Kurian. The plaintiff claims that the defendants were deliberately indifferent to his serious medical condition.
Specifically, the plaintiff alleges that on February 8, 2006, he finished his work assignment and began to feel very sick. The plaintiff says he has asthma was suffering from an asthma attack. Defendant Birkel told the plaintiff to lay down and he would be fine. The plaintiff then spoke to Defendant Shaw and told him about his condition. Shaw responded that he also had asthma and did not believe the plaintiff was having an attack. Shaw said he would report the plaintiff's claims to a medical technician, but the plaintiff says he did not see Shaw again that day.
The plaintiff says about three hours later he asked to be taken to the hospital. A medical technician was called and the plaintiff was transferred to the medical unit. The plaintiff described his physical condition to the nurse on duty. Defendant Dr. Kurian entered the room, but the plaintiff says he spoke only to the nurse and told her to give the plaintiff a breathing treatment. The plaintiff was then returned to his cell without every being examined by a doctor.
The plaintiff says the breathing treatment provided minimal relief and his condition continued to decline throughout the night.
The next day, the plaintiff told his work supervisor that he was still suffering from an asthma attack and asked to go to the hospital. Medical Technician Birkel was called, but did not show up for 45 minutes. Birkel told the plaintiff to go back to work. The plaintiff asked to speak to a medical supervisor or lieutenant. Birkel then made a phone call and spoke for about 20 minutes. He then asked the plaintiff if he still wanted to go to the hospital. When the plaintiff said he did, Birkel took him to the medical unit.
The plaintiff says this time he did see a doctor and it "was discovered plaintiff was having a severe asthma attack and suffering form a bronchial infection." (Comp., p. 6) The plaintiff was given another breathing treatment and was prescribed different medications for his condition.
The plaintiff says before this asthma attack, his "asthma condition was mild and kept under control." (Comp, p. 7). The plaintiff says he only need to use breathing inhalers every two or three months. The plaintiff says since the attack, he must use inhalers on a daily basis and his condition has deteriorated.
To state a violation of the Eighth Amendment, the plaintiff must first demonstrate that the alleged deprivation was sufficiently serious. Rhodes v. Chapman, 452 U.S. 337, 346 (1981); Wilson v. Seiter, 501 U.S. 294, 297 (1991). The plaintiff must also show that the defendants acted with deliberate indifference. Farmer v. Brennan, 511 U.S. 825, 828 (1994). "[A] finding of deliberate indifference requires evidence that the official was aware of the risk and consciously disregarded it nonetheless." Mathis v. Fairman, 120 F.3d 88, 91 (7th Cir.1997)(citing Farmer at 840-42). Inadequate medical treatment due to negligence or even gross negligence does not support an Eighth Amendment violation. Shockley v Jones, 823 F.3d 1068, 1072 (7th Cir. 1987). In addition, inmates are not entitled to a specific type of treatment, or even the best care, only reasonable measures to prevent a substantial risk of serious harm. Forbes v. Edgar, 112 F.3d, 262, 267 (7th Cir. 1997).
"[P]roof of deliberate indifference may be found where a prison official intentionally denies or delays access to medical care or intentionally interferes with the treatment once prescribed." Jones v. Simek, 193 F.3d 485, 490-491 (7th Cir. 1999) citing Ford, 2001 WL 456427 at 6. A delay in scheduling an appointment for medical treatment may constitute deliberate indifference. Id. However, "an inmate who complains that delay in medical treatment rose to constitutional violation must place verifying medical evidence in the record to establish the detrimental effect of delay in medical treatment to succeed." Langston v Peters, 100 F.3d 1235, 1240 (7th Cir. 1996).
Based on the allegations in the plaintiff's complaint, it is clear the plaintiff eventually did receive treatment for asthma. It appears the plaintiff is claiming that the delay in receiving this treatment was a violation of his constitutional rights.
The court also notes that the claims are against the defendants in their individual capacities only. Suits against state officers in their "official capacity" are suits against the state and thus cannot be brought under Section 1983. Will v. Michigan Dept. of State Police, 491 U.S. 58 (1989).
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that:
1) Pursuant to its merit review of the complaint under 28 U.S.C. Section 1915A, the court finds that the plaintiff states the following federal claims:the defendants were deliberately indifferent to the plaintiff's serious medical condition when they delayed treatment for an asthma attack. The claim is against the defendants in their individual capacities only.
2) All other claims based on federal law, other than those set forth in paragraph (1) above, are dismissed for failure to state a claim pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Section 1915A.
3) This case shall proceed solely on the federal claim identified in paragraph one above. Any claims not set forth in paragraph one above shall not be included in the case, except in the court's discretion on motion by a party for good cause shown, or by leave of court pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 15.
4) A Prisoner Scheduling Order shall be entered directing service and setting a Rule 16 conference date.
6) A copy of this Case Management Order shall be served with the Complaint and Scheduling Order.
7) The defendants shall file an answer within the time prescribed by Local Rule. A motion to dismiss is not an answer. The answer must be considered a responsive pleading under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 15(a) and should include all defenses appropriate under the Federal Rules. The answer and subsequent pleadings shall be to the issues and claims stated in this Case Management Order.
Entered this 30th Day of March, 2007.

Enterprise environments utilize many different kinds of storage technologies from different vendors to fulfill various needs in their IT landscape. These are often very expensive and procurement cycles quite lengthy. They also need specialized expertise in each vendor's storage technologies to configure them and integrate them into the ecosystem, again resulting in prolonged project cycles and added cost. AWS provides end-to-end storage solutions that will fulfill all these needs of Enterprise Environments that are easily manageable, extremely cost effective, fully integrated and totally on demand. These storage technologies include Elastic Block Store (EBS) for instance attached block storage, Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) for object (file) storage and Amazon Glacier for archival. An enterprise database environment is an excellent example of a system that could use all these storage technologies to implement an end-to-end solution using striped PIOPS volumes for data files, Standard EBS volumes for log files, S3 for database backup using Oracle Secure Backup and Glacier for long-time archival from S3 based on time lapse rules. In this session, we will explore the best practices for utilizing AWS storage tiers for enterprise workloads.

Requirements & Recommendation
- ### Turn php safemode off in your php.ini file.
- ### Turn open_basedir off in your php.ini file.
- ### Turn file_uploads = On in your php.ini file.
- ### Multibyte Functions(mb_string etc...)(Depending languages - default uses UTF-8 for encoding).
- ### Install/Enable php GD Support (with freetype)
- ### Install/Enable php curl with it's dependencies
- Be sure that your server minds .htaccess files ( it's required for whole app and also security of file-system ).
Note: Apache mod_headers is also required, if it is not loaded enable it from your conf file or ask your hosting provider to enable it.
Additional Note: Closhare+plus minifies & caches asset files with mod_deflate or mod_gzip(Apache 2+) so for the best user experience please be sure you have enabled it.
Minimum / Best performance requirements/settings:
### Closhare+plus never minds the max_upload_limit if you have configured chunk file size limit right on your Closhare+plus settings. Default chunk file size limit is 2MB(Global "upload limit" scope of many hosting providers)
Anyway, while you configure the following options you must be aware of "upload speed of clients and file sizes".
In your php.ini file
memory_limit = 16-32M
upload_max_filesize = >64M ## This option depends on your needs. 32MB probably be enough.
Note: If you don't know what does it mean any of above you can ask your hosting provider or ask me by email: nedox at xneda dot com

One of the great things about Kate Middleton is that the lady LOVES a bargain when it comes to her wardrobe wares.
Bicester Village in Oxfordshire is Duchess Kate's go-to shopping destination when she needs something smart for a sparkly soiree or royal appointment. How do we know? The stylish royal confessed her love of the outlet shopping complex to Sadiah Bte Shahal at Changi Airport on the first day of her and the Duke of Cambridge's nine-day tour of the Far East.
That Missoni dress coat? Kate picked it up at the Bicester discount store. Royal blue, tweed and super chic.
Not only is Kate a big supporter of the British highstreet (sporting staples from the likes of Reiss, Max Mara, Whistles and Hobbs) but she also loves Brit designers Alice Temperley, Jenny Packham and Mulberry.
When it comes to bagging a real bargain though, Kate is all for finding hidden gems on the 60Slideshow-898362C51792318223FFEB00&videoControlDisplayColor=%23191919&shuffle=0&isAP=1">}catch(e){}

International Year of Light 2015
The year 2015 has been declared as the International Year of Light and Light-based Technologies (IYL2015) by the United Nations General Assembly. The goal of this global initiative is to "highlight to the citizens of the world the importance of light and optical technologies in their lives, for their futures, and for the development of society". Light plays a central role, not only in science and technology, but also in nature as well as in art and culture. In particular, the exploration of the physics of light and the resulting light-based technologies significantly contribute to an improved quality of life in terms of health, communication and the environment.
The Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light would like to contribute to the IYL2015's success and organises various individual events in cooperation with the Institute of Optics, Information and Photonics of the Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) both on a regional level and with international scope. Here is an overview.
Street Art Science of Light
For this art and science project, on August 20 2015 pupils were invited to visit MPL. After a short introduction to the institute and lab tours, the students created chalk graffitis showing different motives related to the science at MPL. Theses graffitis were distributed at central locations in Erlanger afterwards.
Please find further information as well as explanations of the motives here (German website).
die.Lichtbühne ("light stage") is a public outreach activity that takes place regularly in 2015. At central city locations, we invite pedestrians to visit our booth where we present exciting short talks and a couple of nice experiments, each time with a different scientific focus in the field of optics.
The final Lichtbühne in 2015 took place on 5 December from 4-7 pm at Hugenottenplatz, Erlangen.
Please find further information and pictures about die.Lichtbühne here.
Cooperation with the Max Planck Society (MPG)
In cooperation with MPG, two Max Planck Forum (panel discussions on particular socially relevant topics) were organized. Prof. Dr. Gerd Leuchs was a member of both panels and explained the relevance of quantum cryptography to the public.
- May 7 at the Museum for Communication in Nuremberg: "Wird das Internet wirklich sicher? Verschlüsselungen auf dem Prüfstand"
- June 16 at the Embassy of Canada in Berlin: "Quantum Cryptography - A New Perspective for Digital Security?"
In May MPG's central IYL2015 websites have been launched (both in German):
- www.deutschland-geht-ein-licht-auf.de, where you can for example watch our movie about Quantenphysik- Abhörsicher durch Zufall (English version will follow soon)
- www.forschen-mit-licht.mpg.de Light was also the topic of a special issue of the MaxPlanckResearch magazine dedicated to IYL2015, with an MPL contribution about "Secret Code in a Laser Pulse"
Light was also the topic of a special issue of the MaxPlanckResearch magazine dedicated to IYL2015, with an MPL contribution about "Secret Code in a Laser Pulse"
In 2015 MPL will in particular promote young researchers at different levels, for example within the framework of "Jugend forscht" or as host of the renowned International Siegman School on Lasers 2015. This summer school was organized in cooperation with the Optical Society from August 2-7 in Amberg, Germany. More than 80 international young scientists from all over the world as well as 10 distinguished invited speakers participated in this very successful event. (detailed report including pictures)
Further information as well as an overview of national and international events can be found on the following websites:

Note: Sample below may appear distorted but all corresponding word document files contain proper formattingExcerpt from essay:
Student accounts will be located behind a proxy server that is part of the university network. It is expected that the websites will be reasonably safe, but there is never a 100% guarantee. Therefore, it is highly suggested that students refrain from posting information that could endanger them and make them a target for phishers and theft.
Personal safety and security is the responsibility of the individual. Students must keep their passwords safe. Do not tell anyone your password. Although, you may think that you can trust someone, you never know. Students should also refrain from posting information such as their social security number, bank account, or credit cared information. They should not publish their personal address or phone number. It is believed that with a few common sense rules, the student's experience can be a safe and meaningful one. However, one must never become complacent because computer crime happens every day.
1.6 Right to Amendment and use of University intellectual property
In the future, the University of Colorado may see fit to amend these rules or to establish new rules and procedures. The university reserves the right to make these modifications without prior notice to the student body or staff. Students and staff are encouraged to check for modifications frequently. Notices will be posted on the home page alerting students and staff of these changes.
Students are not permitted to use any image, logo, the University name, trademarks or other copyrighted symbols without the express written consent of the appropriate governing university body. Students are only allowed to post materials for which they own all entitlement and rights, unless they can demonstrate that they have obtained proper permission from the owner of that property. Plagarism will not be tolerated.
2.0 Creating Your Webpage
2.1 Getting Started
You should now be familiar with the general rules and policies that will govern student websites. It is now time to begin thinking about your design and how you wish to represent yourself on your web page. This section of the guideline will outline design requirements and certain things that must be included in the design. It will then go into the basic mechanics of how to build and publish the website to the university servers.
2.2 Web Page Requirements
Web pages must include certain minimal requirements for publication. The following list represents the bare minimum information that must be included on your personal web page.
2. Link to your email address
3. A copyright Symbol followed by your name and date
4. Any additional pages other than the Home page must have a link back to the home page.
These four items represent the minimum requirements and must be included in every student and faculty web page. It is suggested that you provide your email address, rather than a personal phone number for security purposes. You are free to expand on these elements according to your own creativity, but these elements must be present for publication.
2.3 Avoiding plagiarism
All content on student and faculty web pages must be their original creation. Copying and paging another web page is prohibited. Using any materials without permission of the creator is a violation of copyright law and goes against university policy against plagiarism. The source for graphics on web pages must be cited properly and permission obtained for their usage where appropriate.
2.4 Designing your webpage
The university offers courses in website design that teaches the mechanics and other aspects of website design. However, students are not required to take those courses in order to create their own web site. Anyone, regardless of experience or expertise may create a website. Once the basic requirements are met, the rest is up to your own creativity. The following guidelines will help you to create a web site that represents you in the best light.
1. Decide how you wish to represent yourself and what you wish to say about yourself.
2. Consider your audience and how they will perceive the images and content that you post.
3. Be kind. Avoid colors and patterns that strain the eyes.
4. Be creative, let your website express your personality and interests.
2.5 Editing your webpage
Students may use HTML for their webpages, or they may use a number of editing programs. Dreamweaver is the suggested editor, as this is the most compatible with the university system. Other systems may be used, as long as they are compatible with the system. The system is not compatible with FrontPage. Due to security and other technical issues, the university has discontinued allowing use of FrontPage for editing.
Name the page that you with to be your primary home page index.html or index.htm. There is wealth of information and many tutorials available on the web that can provide you with the basics of web design. You are free to use templates, as long as there are no potential copyright issues. Have fun, but keep your audience in mind and how they will perceive you when they visit your website. The website is a direct expression of you.
2.6 Publishing Your Webpage
These represent the general instructions for publishing your website. Student web pages will be contained in your University of Colorado Student Account. To access your account, log into your student account using your username and password. The server name is homepages.uofc.edu. Your URL will be hompages.uofc.edu/~name/. Your username name will be your first initial plus your last name, in lower case with no spaces. For example, a username the URL for John Smith would be homepates.uofc.edu/jsmith/. Each student will be allotted 50MB of space for their creation. University servers support FTP using WS_FTP_LE. This is the recommended software for FTP, others may not be compatible with the university server.
2.7 Support
If you have any questions or trouble with the webpage, the IT department will be able to answer any questions that you may have. You may contact the IT staff at [HIDDEN] ext. 115. You many also contact them by email at -- .
2.8 Tips and Pointers for Success
By now, you may have ideas running through your head and are ready to begin the design process. However, at this point, you may have absolutely no ideas or a clue of where to start. This section will cover some of the most important design basics and mistakes that are made by beginning web designers. This discussion is meant as a summary of information to help you avoid the most common mistakes. If you wish to have information beyond the scope of this basic guideline, it is suggested that you take one of the many courses on web design that are currently being offered by the university.
Avoid Complex Backgrounds
Complex backgrounds may be appealing as a work of art, but they can make the text on a web site nearly impossible to read. Readers are not likely to spend time at websites that are difficult read. The following examples would be poor choices for home page designs, as the text would be difficult to read. The page would look visually cluttered and difficult to read.
Illustration 1. Examples of Hard to Read Background Images
The next set of background would be suitable for use in personal web pages, as they have ample spaces for the insertion of text in a contrasting color.
Illustration 2. Good Background Images
All images used in these examples are found on http://www.freefoto.com/index.jsp, According to their Free Use Rules, they are permissible to use for non-commercial interests (http://www.freefoto.com/browse/99-05-0?ffid=99-05-0).
Simple Designs are better than visually cluttered ones (McGovern). The following is an example of a visually cluttered website. It is difficult to find what you want and where you want to go. Web sites this cluttered should be avoided for maximum success. In addition, they take up quite a hefty bit of web space and fail to get their message across.
Illustration 3. Design that is too cluttered
Image Source: http://www.subhub.com/articles/the_worst_website_design_mistakes_of_2008
These examples demonstrate that simplicity is often the best policy in website design. In an interview with Daniel Shaefer, he felt that using designs that are too complex are the most common mistake that he sees made on student websites. According to Schaefer, students should strive for a clear, readable sight with only a minimal amount of flashy content. Shaefer reminds us that student websites demonstrate who we are and how we wish to portray ourselves to the world, a simple well-designed website says more positive things about our personalities than one that is poorly done and visually cluttered (Schaefer).
Following these tips will help you to build website that will say what you want to say about yourself while avoiding the most common mistakes that students make on their personal websites. This will help to make the student's first experience on the web a positive one. Every student does not have to be a master web-designer; these recommendations are only advice that will help you to learn the basic of…[continue]

designing at the intersection of physical and digital worlds, especially for connected home, wearables, mobile devices, virtual reality, and augmented reality
my apartment tweets
art studio in lowell, ma open by appointment
I am astonished how quickly this year went by. It's been such a blur, I've neglected this blog. It's a shame, 'cause it was an amazing year. I kicked off "conference season" attending Pro/Design at NASDAQ in NYC. Then spring brought IA Summit in Minneapolis where I presented a poster about wearables called "Anatomy of a Cyborg". I took a few days off and hung out in Austin which is undergoing a remarkable transformation. With 200K more people since I left in 2008, it's not such a small city anymore!
June brought me back to Minneapolis for the Eyeo Festival, to St. Louis for The Overlap and then to San Francisco for O'Reilly Solid. Then in July I had the pleasure of heading out to Arizona for Sketching in Hardware which took place, I kid you not, at Biosphere 2. And finally, because I apparently can't get enough of Minneapolis, I went back once again in October for Inst-Int.
I've already been planning for next year which will include a return to San Francisco for the O'Reilly Design conference and I definitely will be at IA Summit in Atlanta and OpenVis Conf here in Boston. I am hoping to also make it to Helsinki for Interaction 16. Fingers crossed!
Nothing firm yet, but I hope 2016 will be filled with some big and exciting updates so watch this space or follow me on Twitter!
We humans like to celebrate milestones whether meaningless or meaningful. Here we have a new year. We've managed to travel around the sun again. A lot of people tweeted about how much 2014 sucked and that 2015 had better be better as if the universe puts brackets around years. I think the same folks said the same thing about 2013 and 2014. I shrug my shoulders. I just try to be better every day.
My own ambivalence aside, 2014 was kind of crazy. I ended up leaving SapientNitro and joining Mullen. I attended 4 conferences and presented at 2. I got a soldering iron and played a lot with microcontrollers, code and sensors. I supported several Kickstarters including one that resulted in meeting one of my favorite living filmmakers. I even started running regularly (albeit it very slowly) before it got cold.
I think 2015 will be more of the same. But, not just playing with physical computing, actually making some finished things. I want to improve my coding and building skills so that I'm at minimum a decent enough prototyper. I feel like I didn't draw or write enough in 2014, so I want to bring that back into my daily practice. I want to figure out what my practice as an experience designer becomes as my focus and interests continue to shift toward emerging technologies. Who knows where that will lead me?
I just want to thank everyone at Midwest UX, and all of my friends and colleagues for the support these past several months. It's been really awesome. And I am glad to close out the 2014 conference season with this video of my presentation: The Internet of Broken Things
I encourage you to check out all of the Midwest UX presentations on Vimeo. They are great!
It's been so busy the past few months, I've posted nary an update! Midwest UX begins today in Indianapolis, IN and I am excited to be presenting on Saturday at 11:30am about the Internet of Things and how I created my connected home. I believe the conference is nearly sold out so if you're not able to make it, there are some hashtags to keep an eye on: #mwux14 and for my talk, #iobt. It should be a great time!
I am thrilled to announce that I will be presenting a talk called The Internet of Broken Things at MidwestUX in October. It's a great conference and I am really looking forward to it! Hope to see you there!
An amazing number of things have happened since I last posted:
I just want to take a moment and thank all you out there who've supported me the past few months. It's really been an amazing time and there is much, much more to come!
So what's next? I'll be attending the Eyeo festival in Minneapolis next week! I've been wanting to attend since the first year so I'm really excited that I was able to commit to going this year. Will I see you there?
I will be presenting a poster at the IA Summit Poster Night about the IOT stuff I have going on in my home. I've been looking forward to sharing this for a long time and can't wait to get feedback from other designers. It gets even more exciting as I am hoping to build my first custom device this weekend at an Arduino workshop at Lowell Makes. See you in San Diego?
For the past 2 and a half years I worked for a great little company (actually, they're quite big) called SapientNitro. Sadly last week my time with them came to an end. I was sad to see it end because it had been a long time since I'd worked someplace where every day I couldn't wait to see what I was going to be confronted with, what my co-workers were going to say or do and how we all we excited with each new tech or cultural development that could somehow be morphed to help tell our client's stories. There was something about that place that brought back to mind the excitement of the late 90s when this whole internet thing really became a thing.
And now there's a thing called the internet of things. I hope that's at least part of my story in the future. I think there's so much possibility in what we wear on our bodies and how we interact within spaces. And if I don't get to explore this for my daily bread, I have lots of ideas for personal projects.
Meanwhile, as I go over the rainbow, I am indeed looking for my next adventure and I am open to freelance opportunities either remote or in the Boston area. Contact me for details.
Note: This was posted on an older blog a few years ago. Thought I'd bring it over here for safe keeping.
I originally started writing this blog post in 2010 a couple of weeks after I got home from IA Summit. I remember being quite a bit angry. Well, maybe not angry, but annoyed. But then I got busy at work and put it aside, like most of my blog posts, unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you look at it.) Since then some people have spoken out a few times about the person who inspired this blog post originally and whether or not her contributions help or hurt the UX community and controversy erupted each time following the exact same pattern only more intensely:
Someone writes a blog post that says:
1. she said x and y and did z
2. she is wrong because of a, b and c
3. people keep supporting her and giving her credibility because of….well no one really knows why
4. this is making the UX community look weird to both insiders and outsiders because in the real world d, e and f happen
5. pay attention and think critically!
And then some people respond with
6. how dare you attack her personally!
7. she's done a tremendous amount to advance the community (noting no examples)
8. and my favorite: you're just saying that because she's a woman!
And then others respond with
9. you know what, i don't know who any of these people are, but you're right! I'm jumping on this bandwagon!
10. or can't we all just get along? I'm jumping on that bandwagon!
And then finally it kind of all goes away for a few months…until it all flares up again probably mostly because of #3
So being that it's a short week at my office and things are slow enough to take a few minutes to think about this, I am revisiting this original blog post because in the end, nothing has changed. I still feel the same way. So here it is, with the intent of talking about what I think we really should be focusing on…
[And just a quick note, I make references to icebergs, which is a metaphor that we see all the time, but it's been so long since I started this that I don't remember where I was going with it. Also please forgive the poor grammar and erratic capitalizations. It's a sickness…)
My Closing Plenary
The choice of the closing plenary speaker at the IA Summit was apparently controversial. I'm not sure where any of this controversy took place so all I can do is shrug my shoulders. It wouldn't have been my choice and wasn't up to me so ultimately it was a non-issue for me. a lot of people thought it was a perfectly fine and inspiring speech, and to them I say "whatever floats your boat". For me, however, there was little there. It just sounded like last year's talk which to me sounded like HR stuff which i generally tune out because it's annoying.
Am I an oldtimer? I guess. I mean this is my second career. But it's not about that. My immediate concern is that the talk was not something that I would feel comfortable sharing with a colleague, client or mentee to help them understand the state of the union when it comes to information architecture and user experience. I'm not saying that's what it had to be. That's just what I would have preferred. I could share it with my mom as a story of a young woman who talks about her feelings or my sister who hasn't quite figured out what she want to be when she grows up. I guess I could share it with my hr dept. They like that kind of stuff. But when it comes to the how and why of what we do, where we're going, where we've been, etc., it was irrelevant to me. It was like watching Oprah when I was expecting This American Life. Maybe I missed something (and I'm sure someone will clue me in). I've been reading everyone's blog posts hoping to figure it out, but so far, nothing.
As a result, I've written my own plenary and for once, as I return to blogging after about 5 years (well, not quite), I'm going to share it with you.
As user experience practitioners, interaction designers, researchers, usability specialists, UI, engineers, interface designers and dare I say, information architects, we have the ability to make ourselves crazy very easily. With each interaction in life, we look for the shape, the pattern, the connections and meanings within. How many of you took pictures of the thermostats in your hotel rooms? How many of you spent a little too much time thinking about the way the shower knob worked only to realize it turns in the same direction as your shower knob at home? How many of you linger in the doorways with a raging inner debate about how that door should work? The way these things are triggered in our brains is what enables us to do our jobs so well. It is also the reason the community keeps getting caught up in the repeated debates over definiing ourselves, wireframes, rockstar-ism, service design or whatever flavor of the day is. It's in our DNA as information designers and knowledge workers.
We are designers.
We consider.
We reconsider.
We redesign in our heads.
Every thought, every moment, every thing.
The question is where has it gotten you? How much have you moved that iceberg in the past year? We need have the ability to turn the volume down on some of out obsessions in order to progress.
[insert interesting meaningful things plenary speakers have said over the years, but i'm not going to 'cause it takes more time than I have right now]
And what are you getting from this conference and this community that will help you with your challenges? What are you giving to this conference and community? And isn't it interesting that late in the day the seats that go first in any given session are the ones nearest to electrical outlets? Why haven't conference spaces changed much to meet the needs of conference attendees? Where are we changing the world beyond the web?
Change is hard and constant and variable. It's the only thing we really truly know is going to happen, but we don't always know when and how. Writing your history at the moment of creation is a speculative effort at best. Slow down and watch how we all change. Now do you see the pattern? How about now?
inspiration gets you only so far. perspiration gets it done.
I am bothered by this oft repeated notion that we aren't really designing anything. If that were true, someone is wasting a heck of a lot of money on me. Just because something is not atomic, physical or tangible doesn't mean it doesn't exist. If that were true, then abstract painting and conceptual art wouldn't exist. All those naked folks standing around MoMA for nothing!
The experiences that we design are tangible, moving, inspiring, motivating, annoying, deceitful, illusory and everchanging. These are potentially living things. Potentially.
So my daily challenge is not getting people to give me a place at the table 'cause i'm already there. My table is the whiteboard where I struggle with new ideas or the conference room where I convince people to understand my vision. I can stand on my own two feet. My daily challenge is moving a mountain. it's an iceberg, actually. and there's a direction i'd like to see it go in not just to survive, but to prosper and grow. if it prospers, then i prosper. moving the iceberg seems easy enough when you look at it from up high. but a lot of it is under water and you just can't see what the heck it's stuck on. HR can't help with that.
The problem with ux people is we hang out with each other a little too much. We're like Hollywood when we should be a little more New York. (Or Woodstock when we should be CBGB) We should be fiercely independent. Guerilla. When I was in film school way back when, one thing I heard over and over that what made living in NYC so great was that the people you knew came from all different backgrounds, all different businesses whether it was finance, science, fashion or politics. In Hollywood, everyone is in movies or tv.
So ultimately, it's about the work. Keep tabs of what we're doing, of course, but be sure to stick your head out every so often and understand what's going on in the world 'cause you never know what your next assignment is going to be or where it is going to come from. But you will have to learn it, understand it, design it and share its story with others.
Finally, don't just go to ux conferences. be cross disciplinary. Read everything. Keep a journal or sketchbook. Go to conferences and events about topics you know nothing about. Or organize your own.
just go and listen.
listen hard.
be visual.
don't just look, learn to see.
you learn to see by drawing.
and when you're drawing, you're thinking.
and when you're thinking, you're doing.
what do we do?
we create.
what do we create?
we create understanding.

Designing at the intersection of physical and digital worlds, especially for connected home, wearables, mobile devices, virtual reality, and augmented reality.
My goal is to solve problems and make the increasingly complex world more understandable by designing engaging and easy-to-use experiences. More specifically, this applies to how people can better understand themselves through data and technology, and how people and businesses can better engage with each other in environments enabled by networks and sensors.
I have 10+ years experience designing user experiences for interactive design and integration projects large and small, simple and complex across various industries including telecommunications, financial services, travel, CPG, greeting cards and government.
I also have 10 years experience in animation and television production and a lifetime as a fine artist and craftsperson.
Key Activities: information architecture, interaction design, service design, product design, prototyping, sketching, visual thinking, user experience design, user research
At SapientNitro my projects included the IA and interaction design of complex financial services applications, enterprise websites and location-based mobile apps.
Since 2008 I've been a generalist responsible for user experience design from the earliest requirements gathering through the build and launch. Projects included small-scale and large-scale website redesigns, 3rd party utility integration, social media implementation, mobile and ipad apps as well as strategic consultation.
