Control your Facebook feed and some iOS7 sniping
Two super quick things today (while I’m drowning in post-election data analysis for the Greens – biiiiiiig data sets – fun!). Firstly a great post from an ex-colleague of mine, Stuart Buchanan (we both worked at FBi 94.5 when it first went to air) about how to control your facebook feed and see MOAHR than […]
Some UX insights and deliverables from my last project
So, again, now that this latest research project is finished, I thought I would share one or two of the deliverables here. Above is a graphic depicting the major interactions between stakeholders of the product. Audio professionals and their clients – and where the value of the product will lie. This analysis enabled us to […]
Musicians, Social Media and STATISTICS!
I’m just about to finish the report for this batch of UX testing I’ve been doing and thought I would share a super quick screen capture of something that made me squeal with excitement. Despite the tiny sample size (8 participants) we ALMOST achieved a statistically significant result in the correlation between self-ratings of professionalism […]
Some great ethnographic texts.
So I’ve been running a bunch of research sessions this week, which have been going quite well, but I’m also getting stuck into the literature of ethnographic practices. As these two books have been occupying much of my headspace. One is this, Ethnography for Marketers by Hy Mariampolski. It came highly recommended by Erietta Sapounakis […]
UX testing sessions
I’m putting some participants through some preliminary UX testing for a web-product in development at the moment. And already some superbly valuable insights are coming out – it’s great when clients really appreciate the ‘test early – test often’ approach.
Grumpy Greens Cat
We have an election looming here in Australia and my allegiences are decidedly green. As a result (and I claim full responsibility for this abomination)… Feel free to download (click on it for a larger version), share, mutilate, sue me, etc… I am going stright to hell for this. Update: Here’s a version with even […]
Crazy audio controller, haptic feedback and power stations
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bSh10jvHEQ&w=560&h=315] Just a quick one today – check out this AWESOME new audio controller. Stay with it – at first I thought this was the silliest thing in the world – a box of buttons you can wave around on stage – until I realised that: ‘No – waving it around is actually the POINT […]
Digital Wayfinding – what real life can teach us
a So I recently did a job where I had to engage with wayfinding theory. This is fascinating stuff: a highly specialised, well developed field that has traditionally called on elements of psychology, architecture and town planning. Interestingly though, there are a lot of times where the same (or similar) problems exist in our virtual […]
The Politics of Design
So things have been busy here recently, hence the dearth of new posts. The business is starting to take off, I’ve had some fascinating work and some of that is both return and on-going work – applying Psych principles to the User Experience, as well as more straight UX work. So this post is going […]
