I have an addiction to drop shadows blog, impressions, proposal, review, suggestion | (5)
So I was really bored after everyone left today at work so I decided to work on a new Blog design. You can see from the screenshot above what it looks like and you can download the Photoshop File Here. As you can see from the design a took a lot of color and visual cues from the current IxDA website. I was attempting to achieve a good balance of our own style with that of the existing IxDA. This way people would associate PhIxDA with IxDA. I still need to layout what a single post would look like with ...

My Goodness my Guinness! Focus - we talk about this a lot. We are getting together to talk about interaction design, not just interaction design for web. Currently the web is our common ground.

The Junto Experience Junto, P'UNK Ave, meeting notes, opinion, outside, review | (0)
I attended the Junto meeting at P'UNK Avenue last night. It was a very sobering experience. The organization of the group is very solid and they have a very specific goal when they meet. Let me first say that if you haven't already you should really sign up on the mailing list for Junto. It is the only way to get the information about the next Junto which will focus on design. Go Here to sign up... now!With that said, here is how the meeting went:I arrived there at 6pm when it was supposed to start and there were only ...

impressions: lm3labs web site impressions | (3)
Lee sent out an email with this link - http://www.lm3labs.com/ on October 1st. I really like their products and they have an interesting interface for their website. I wish the website was more helpful. I have some thoughts. It is all flash and it is nicely done. You should all know by now how I feel about flash, but just in case you don't - flash is super cool and I love it, but I don't think it is a good idea to build a site entirely in flash. You would think that a company that is ...

tags for now proposal, suggestion | (3)
until we use a blog that supports multiple pages, we should take advantage of the tagging system. i've started a subsection called "Meeting Notes" which is pretty obvious, but there might be more categories that need to be grouped together. exercises, homework, events, links, etc. i propose we either move to a new blog that supports what we want, or we determine a system of tagging to help organize what i imagine will be an absurd amount of information (which should probably be done anyway).

define interaction design brain monkey | (1)
Bryan's quote from boxes and arrows In the end, interaction design is the choreography and orchestration of these form-based design disciplines to create that holistic narrative between human(s) and the products and systems around us.

Junto on Pashunk Junto, P'UNK Ave, outside | (1)
The people down at P'UNK Avenue have been doing something close to what we are setting out to do since March 07 (Thanks for the correction Geoff) and they call it Junto. They are doing it again this Thursday at their office in soufPhilly on Pashunk (your welcome Megan) as always. It's one block above Genos Steaks for those less inclined to use Google Maps.I think it is worth attending and checking out. I'll send around the email I received this weekend from them that gives more details about the meeting this Thursday the 18th. Thank Megan Heffernan for introducing ...

PhIxDA Meeting 10/9 meeting notes | (0)
Chris and myself met at the POPE in South Philly for a few drinks and to discuss PhIxDA. We started off talking about how 2 weeks into us starting to meet, we almost didn't and how disconcerting that was and that as long as its more then one person getting together on a regular basis we could consider it a PhIxDA meeting. We then talked briefly about what we felt the goals of the group are and how we see the group growing and expanding to other fields such as interior design, graphic design, engineering etc. From there ...
