road in via INSPIRATION #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
Where do you draw inspiration from when you start a (design) project? #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
favourite awwwards webbies competitors #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
What does art have to do with this? (Let me get on with my job!) #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
Art techniques applied to design processes lead to more exciting outcomes. #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
How we measure that today worked If you leave the room inspired • thinking (a thought) • smiling • #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
Before we venture outside… #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
quick exercise LET’S GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
Think of the last time you felt really inspired and tell us about that moment in a few short sentences. think, 5 min, share with write solo the team down. #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a

A MUSICAL DICE GAME FOR COMPOSING A MINUET (MOZART, 1787) 1 MUSIC
SERENDIPITY + CHANCE “Aleatoric music, in which some element of the composition is left to chance, and/or some primary element of a composed work's realization is left to the determination of its performer(s)…” #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a

WORDS His relationship with words was very particular - inspired by their shape, their out-our-context beauty and intricacy #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
work's realization is reconfigured left to the understanding of the determination of its nature of time, performer(s) dreams shape of something that was words there long before us #UXLive @alex_andr_a
Those could almost be design principles. Let’s see whether that works. #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
Work's realization is left to the determination of its performer(s) #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
#uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
shape of words #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
adhering to more exciting principles then ‘make it personal’ #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
What would have Mozart composed What would have Dali painted What would have Gehry created What would have Mallarme written If they were only drawing from contemporaries? #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a

how do we counter this? #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
what if there was a TOOLKIT #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
Music + Dance +Theatre to design #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
Literature + Poetry to design #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
Painting + Drawing to design #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
Architecture to design #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
#uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
let’s try to apply this stuff EXPERIMENT 1 #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
Design a page for today’s conference only using circles. 10 min, solo, share your think and drawing and sketch rationale #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
process design EXPERIMENT 2 #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
let’s take a PROCESS #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
LIKE BRAINSTORMING*. #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
*folk gathering that turns into a conversation and often does not lead to any exciting outcomes. #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
BRAINSTORMING AS A PROCESS RULE: can I ask everyone write down the examples instead of showing? METAPHOR: if this was a cooking process, should I ask them all for different Realisation: we Organisation Prep (up to Context Summary / ingredients? need more than (large room, Thinking Speaking individuals) setting Prioritisation one skill set time, invite) TIME: Should I time box their search for inspiration in any way? #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
RE-DESIGN BRAINSTORMING. use a couple of articulate 20 min, share with methods to the in groups the team identify problem solutions #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
SOMEWHAT HELPFUL THINGS - define roles in your team - define the problem - don’t dwell on one solution, think multiple #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
ready? EXPERIMENT. #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
to conclude WHATEVER YOU DO #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
#1 FEED CONNECTIONS Surround yourself with intriguing events, things, people - train eye to see, nose to inhale new ways of connecting things. #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
#2 STEAL FUNDAMENTALS Distill and play within the field of fundamental principles, not features. #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
#3 FIND CONSTRAINTS Venture out of your comfort zone willingly and frequently. Track your least favourite walks. #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
USE. MODIFY. REMODEL. #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
let me know how you get on THANK YOU #uxcityMCR @alex_andr_a
