[EVENT] IxDA Toronto - UX Show and Tell Night, Mon Feb 1st, 7-9pm
Our next IxDA Toronto event is going to be a UX Show and Tell night
(http://www.uxshowandtell.com/).
THE IDEA:
You come with interesting deliverables you've worked on (or are
actively working on), and share them in a casual setting with others
interested in UX.
Tell us how you communicated your ideas in the face of design
adversity! Alternatively, get feedback on a work-in-progress.
We'll see how things shake out the night of, but we'd like to set
up a number of roundtables with 8-10 people each. Proposed
roundtables are:
- Wireframes
- Prototypes (paper, Axure, HTML, other)
- Other interesting deliverables scenarios & stories, flows,
personas, strategy docs, heuristic reports, usability testing reports
(email us at toronto-local at ixda.org with ideas!)
The key is: we need YOU to share! Bring print copies of a deliverable
and/or something to project.
WHO SHOULD COME?
Everyone! We want seasoned veterans as well as UX newcomers.
Developers, visual designers, content strategists, other UX hobbyists
you're all welcome.
We'd love if you brought things to share, but if you don't have
anything or don't feel comfortable, that's okay too.
WHERE & WHEN?
We've found a new home that will hopefully give us some room to grow
in the future: Function13 in Kensington Market. Come a little early
and check out their awesome design / tech store and art gallery (and
get a discount the night of IxDA Toronto!).
Monday, Feb. 1st, 7-9 pm
156 Augusta Ave
(note that Google Maps says this is further north than it actually is
it's just north of Dundas on the west side)
After, we'll head over to The Embassy (223 Augusta) for some drinks
and conversation.
