UPA Auckland - A Report on Tog's Interaction Design Tutorial

Catherine Bercher will report on the "Interaction Design" tutorial given by Bruce "Tog" Tognazzini (the ex-Apple user interface guru, designer, and writer) that she recently attended in Sydney.

This tutorial distills thirty years’ of his experience with human-computer interaction (HCI) into straightforward principles, processes, and techniques that covered the entire product life cycle. The talk will be a a brief summary of this 3-day tutorial. It may not contain anything new for experienced interaction designers, or those who have read Tog's articles and books, but will definitely be of interest to those less familiar with the field. It has an emphasis on practical use of techniques within commercial development, rather than on theory.
