Hi All,

One of the recent issues published by India Today magazine is on India's best
colleges for Arts, Commerce, Engineering, Medical and Law. This issue is a ready
reckoner for top 25 colleges for these topics.

http://indiatoday.intoday.in/index.php?option=com_registration&task=gallerycat&e\
xist=yes&photocat=3&thumbid=1366&issueid=110

When will 'Design Schools' become part of such evaluation by India Today?
Presently they seem to be concerned only about the routine 5 disciplines. They
have been publishing such issue year after year with same focus!

It clearly shows how much 'design' matters to most Indians, in contrast to what
we would like it to be :-)

I hope that they will include 'design schools' in their next issue.

Best regards,

Dinesh

Hi all,

This is Scott Berkun’s talk from From Business to Buttons, Malmö,
Sweden, June 2009. It was really useful for me:

     Date: Mon Jun 29, 2009 2:38 pm

Dear Color People,



Colors India CMG 2009

TREND AND COLOR CONFERENCE (21st - 22nd August 2009)



HOPE IS THE COLOR OF THE FUTURE:

In a recession do we go grey to stay out of the red? Is mauve the modish
black? Are all "green" products colored viridian? Who knows the answer to
all of these color queries? YOU, that's who! This is the goal of the Colors
India CMG conference. Whether you are in the garment, appliance, retail,
interior, communication, or other Indian industry, Colors India CMG is your
platform for color design. In groups, you will engage in the lively exchange
of information and discuss the application of your conclusions to the Indian
marketplace.

This year the conference will feature two workshops (details below) with a
focused speaker session. The objective of these workshops is to catalyze
conversation on color trends and color design. Colors India 2009 in
association with The Color Marketing Group is "the" place for color info
exchange. The dynamic workshops on the 21st and 22st August will culminate
in forecast information for professionals who design and market color in all
industries.





SCHEDULE OF CONFERENCE AND WORKSHOPS

NCS COLOR WORKSHOP: Royal Bombay Yatch Club, Colaba

Friday 21st and Saturday 22nd August (10.00 am to 5.00 pm)

NCS, the Natural Color System, is a perceptual tool for color design and
communication.

A two day workshop on working with the NCS System includes presentations and
practical exercises. Beginning with the perceptive elementary colors, it is
possible to construct a three-dimensional color space, which includes the
whole color world and makes it possible to describe any conceivable color
percept. A great tool for creating fantastic color design and combinations;
it allows colors to come out right at end production.

WHO SHOULD PARTICIPATE: All designers, Branding agencies, architects,
marketing and research persons, teachers, technicians, paint industries.



TREND & COLOR DIRECTIONS 2009/2010: Royal Bombay Yatch Club, Colaba

Friday 21st and Saturday 22nd August (10.00 am to 6.00 pm)

The Colors India CMG 2008 Forecasting workshop will offer the opportunity to
explore influences and their impact on trend and future color through
discussion and visualization. In an interactive session, devoted to cross
industry participation, we share ideas, technologies and products enabling
us to arrive at the key drivers of design changes and color for the Indian
market in the short and long term. This interaction will enable us to take
inputs from colleagues in adjacent industries into our work and encourage
others to join in. So participate, contribute and you are a part of this
report back. The experience is what you take back.

WHO SHOULD PARTICIPATE: Color developers, designers and marketers who are
making trend and color decisions, eighteen months to two years ahead, attend
this session.






Please Note: Workshop and Color Forecasting are run concurrently.
Participants have to choose one.

COLOR TRENDS OF 2009 (AS DISCUSSED IN 2008)

1)      Ethnic Pride

All industries have moved towards themes of national pride in design and
color directions as people are most comfortable with the colors of our
heritage. There is an innate need to connect with our past. Yet, we continue
to constantly try and modernize traditional values for our convenience.

IMPACT ON COLOR: | Deep | Mixed | Complex |



2)      Balance

Industries are beginning to shift away from the synthetic world. Ironically,
the industrial world is choosing to be more environmental. Green building
initiatives are translating into conservation design for spaces and
products. Touch and feel will be more natural with hybrid surface materials
and coatings.

IMPACT ON COLOR: | Eco | Caring | Leisure | Flexibility | Geometric |



3)      Gender Blending

Women are beginning to explore the competitive world "outside of the home"
and men, in contradiction, are taking on more "in the home" roles. Women
want color and they are not afraid to use it! Confident is the new sexy.
There is an emergence of an endearing, softer man in urban India today. This
concept focuses on role blurring.

IMPACT ON COLOR: | Androgynous | Unisex | Mono Color |



4)      Metro Sensuality

We live busy lives in chaotic cities. We are looking for a representation of
a better life. If luxury is status then the symbol for new luxury is
simplicity. We need products to fill this void of simplicity, clean lines
with modern metro sensuality. Cool palettes of neutrals, with cosmetic
tones, and mock darks to give a sense of luxury with practicality.

IMPACT ON COLOR: | Luxury | Metallic | Urban | Techtitude | Retail
Playground |

2.1. Lighting designers wanted - Call +919741888668
     Posted by: "rad_shetty" rad_shetty@... rad_shetty
     Date: Mon Jun 29, 2009 4:07 pm

Hi!

My name is Radeesh and I'm based in B'lore. My partner and I are working on a
lighting design store in Bangalore for which we are looking for some help and
guidance from the design community. We are both from an advertising background
and have spent reasonable number of years in the field. I also had some exposure
to Media at Star Tv before deciding to go on my own.

The idea for the store stems from our keen interest in interiors and the lack of
places offering innovative but affordable lighting solutions in terms of lamp
shades and light fittings in Bangalore, which we both experienced while
designing our respective homes. What is available is Chinese range that are very
common or Italian/ European products that are outrageously priced. Our store
will basically house 5- 6 lighting designers who would stock their products
under their brand name and would also contain some exclusive pieces that we plan
to collect from India and abroad as we travel over the next  two months and we
plan to set shop by end Aug or early September.

We are looking for lighting designers who would be interested in stocking their
range which we will promote in B'lore as well as other parts of the country
through exhibitions over a period of time. We are also interested in designers
who do not specialise in lights/ lighting but can create interesting one off
piece for the store.

We will be in M'bai between 9th – 13th of July and in A'bad between 14th –
16th of July. Any one who wants to meet us personally can pls call or mail me on
the below mentioned numbers/ mail ids. We will also be visiting Delhi,
H'bad,Chennai and Pondy over the month so if we have any one from the respective
places, pls feel free to call. We are sincerely looking for some help from you
guys. Would highly appreciate if you could also spread the word around.

Awaiting loads of responses.

Regards,
Radeesh Shetty

     Posted by: "Hundekari Vishpala" vishpala@...
     Date: Mon Jun 29, 2009 6:56 pm

 
Dear Kaustav,
 
Thank you so much.
 
Ours is a start-up venture. We are looking out for someone with 1-2 years of
experience, but freshers with keen interest in lifestyle products are also
welcome. We need someone with a lot of initiative and able to take end to end
responsibility from product development to production and delivery. Must be
willing to travel outside Mumbai on a short notice period.
 
We work in a very informal start-up environment,  and are very passionate about
our work and do whatever needs to be done to make our business work - whether
it is putting in long hours to meet order deadlines, or doing the smallest stuff
in the office ourselves. We are looking for someone who understands this, and
is aware of the advantages and the challenges of working in a start-up.  
 
The remuneration will be in line with the current market standards (though
currently not on the higher side) with the possibility of growing faster than
the industry rate in the next few years.
 
Do let me know if anyone is interested.
 
Can mail me on vishpala@..., or amit@...

5. Introduction (Amit Sharma)
     Posted by: "amit sharma" amitdce@... amitdce
     Date: Mon Jun 29, 2009 7:30 pm

Hello everyone,
Amidst the hectic schedule of my startup, I finally got some time to write
out this introduction. Sorry for the delay, Sudhir!

I am *not* a designer by profession, but have studied design (from an
innovation perspective) on my own, and try to use IDEO-type principles in
shaping business models and products. My latest project is a long term
consulting assignment with the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) for a
nationwide "innovation grid". I am helping them with strategy evolution and
product design. I went to UCLA for my MBA, and engineering from DCE. See a
detailed bio at http://www.pyramidconsulting.in/Amit_Sharma_Bio.htm and the
linked profile is at www.linkedin.com/in/amitucla

As part my consulting and product development work, I expect to need design
help every now and then, so expect a few mails from me. Ideally I'd like to
maintain relationships with 2-3 freelancers/companies so I don't have to
search the market every time. Feel free to spam me with your
details/introduction/portfolio- I'll maintain a personally filtered database
for future use.

I think the biggest design related issues for me are:

a) Importance of design. I love India, but I have to say that companies out
here don't understand the importance and meaning of design. I personally am
a big believer, and would like to play a role in sensitizing the industry
here about what design means (its not just logos, stupid!) and what it can
do for them. I was in California for 3 years, and I think we need to use
design more cleverly in order to innovate as a nation. Like minded people-
please drop an e-mail. I'm following the design council thread- great
initiative.

b) Product innovation. Okay, so we are getting some interesting internet
based startups from India, but can we go beyond web design? What about
Indian centric design for Consumer Electronics? Are we going to continue
feeding on foreign-designed-India-customized products?

c) Design for social change. E.g.- I am interacting with Dr. A P J Abdul
Kalam's team right now, as they try to devise some ear marks (funds) for
encouraging entrepreneurship in India. I want to develop management models
(like Grameen Bank and Microfinance) that will help use such funds to
achieve scalable impact across the country. And I think design needs to play
an important role here.

2. Professional Experience from various industries ?
3. More Theoretical knowledge than industrial/professional experiences ?
4. More Industrial/Professional experiences with a level of
Theoretical Knowledge?
5. Designer must be passed out from a reputed  Institutes with 2/3
years of Professional Experiences?
6. Designer must be passed out from a non reputed Institutes with 6/7
years of Professional Experiences?

My Second Question according to the Indian Design Context,

1. After how many years of working, a Designer gets a Senior Post?
2, 3, 4, 5, 6 ,7, 8..__________ ?

2. After how many years of working, a Designer gets a Team Lead/
Design Lead Post?
2, 3, 4, 5, 6 ,7, 8..__________ ?

3. After how many years of working, a Designer gets a Creative Head/

Hi Abinash,
 
Writing to another Mohanty in designindia in less than 2 weeks!
 
You may take this as a joke. In my experience any design graduate "ceases to be
worthy of " any senior position employment in any R&D/corporate set up after 3
years of working. There is no future for any designer whether post graduate or
undergraduate beyond 3., 4, 5 years etc etc.
 
I will be really happy to know if some organisation has taken in a design
professional of 10 years or more experience to head a strategic position in
their set up.

Hi sidharth,



Just my point of view sorry if it is wrong



I feel it is because innovations takes its new faces from the new comers as new
ideas origin and flourishes but since education or the peoples mind set every
thing was not properly designed or crafted to reach a long run



Joining hands with the business trend "a good harvesting at a shorter time" from
agriculture to space every thing is on the same path

Hi Abinash,

 

Writing to another Mohanty in designindia in less than 2 weeks!

 

You may take this as a joke. In my experience any design graduate "ceases to be
worthy of " any senior position employment in any R&D/corporate set up after 3
years of working. There is no future for any designer whether post graduate or
undergraduate beyond 3., 4, 5 years etc etc.

 

I will be really happy to know if some organisation has taken in a design
professional of 10 years or more experience to head a strategic position in
their set up.

Dear Anand,

Its ok. I take note of your observations

So how does a design graduate plan his career?

Is he going to face a ceiling just after 3 years of his career?

Think about it!

Technology, Managment, Strategy - which one should he choose as his career?
Which industry is "valuing" him as a professional worthy of contributing to its
operation and profits and in what role? What is the industry's take?

The problem at this point of time is that except for a handful of companies,
majority of the industry employing designers at entry level onwards do not have
anything resembling a career plan for this category of inhouse "industrial
designers". Even today they are not equipped to handle annual performance review
of inhouse designers.

Cheers!

Hi Siddharth,



With out any Strategy, no Management can achieve the success by depending only
on the Technology. So any who can perform a better role correlated with all the
3 Technology, Management, Strategy can definitely master their role independent
to any sector they work with, because only they could support for efficient
decisions and once if they can prove that definitely they can survive..



Am I correct Ji??????

guess a lot also depends on why is one designing.

not everyone gets into design driven by passion for it and not every design
firm is innovating and designing. the economics behind design work coming to
a studio marginalise the roal and growth of a designer.

who should have the lion's share , the creator or the collaborator // cant
creator be in collaborator's shoes and see the bigger canvas as he focuses
into the minutest of details.....

we have had multiple design forums and schools but little iconic design
......wonder how many designers design.....wonder how many want a designer
to design...wonder how many designers understand design

my two bits

Indian corporate sector is full of examples where a ITI or a diploma holder or a
BA heading strategic positions. What does it mean? It means your qualifications
notwithstanding the company plans a "career" for your "job enhancement" and
promotions so that you can "grow".

Unfortunately there is none for this breed of people called "industrial
designers".

Indian corporate sector is full of examples where a ITI or a diploma holder or a
BA heading strategic positions. What does it mean? It means your qualifications
notwithstanding the company plans a "career" for your "job enhancement" and
promotions so that you can "grow".

Unfortunately there is none for this breed of people called "industrial
designers".

guess a lot also depends on why is one designing.

not everyone gets into design driven by passion for it and not every design
firm is innovating and designing. the economics behind design work coming to
a studio marginalise the roal and growth of a designer.

who should have the lion's share , the creator or the collaborator // cant
creator be in collaborator's shoes and see the bigger canvas as he focuses
into the minutest of details.....

we have had multiple design forums and schools but little iconic design
......wonder how many designers design.....wonder how many want a designer
to design...wonder how many designers understand design

my two bits

Hi Siddharth,

With out any Strategy, no Management can achieve the success by depending only
on the Technology. So any who can perform a better role correlated with all the
3 Technology, Management, Strategy can definitely master their role independent
to any sector they work with, because only they could support for efficient
decisions and once if they can prove that definitely they can survive..

Am I correct Ji??????

Dear Anand,

Its ok. I take note of your observations

So how does a design graduate plan his career?

Is he going to face a ceiling just after 3 years of his career?

Think about it!

Technology, Managment, Strategy - which one should he choose as his career?
Which industry is "valuing" him as a professional worthy of contributing to its
operation and profits and in what role? What is the industry's take?

The problem at this point of time is that except for a handful of companies,
majority of the industry employing designers at entry level onwards do not have
anything resembling a career plan for this category of inhouse "industrial
designers". Even today they are not equipped to handle annual performance review
of inhouse designers.

Cheers!

Hi sidharth,

Just my point of view sorry if it is wrong

I feel it is because innovations takes its new faces from the new comers as new
ideas origin and flourishes but since education or the peoples mind set every
thing was not properly designed or crafted to reach a long run

Joining hands with the business trend "a good harvesting at a shorter time" from
agriculture to space every thing is on the same path

Regards,

Anand

Hi Abinash,
 
Writing to another Mohanty in designindia in less than 2 weeks!
 
You may take this as a joke. In my experience any design graduate "ceases to be
worthy of " any senior position employment in any R&D/corporate set up after 3
years of working. There is no future for any designer whether post graduate or
undergraduate beyond 3., 4, 5 years etc etc.
 
I will be really happy to know if some organisation has taken in a design
professional of 10 years or more experience to head a strategic position in
their set up.

How do you judge a Salary package for a Designer?

1. Year of Experience ?
2. Professional Experience from various industries ?
3. More Theoretical knowledge than industrial/professi onal experiences ?
4. More Industrial/Professi onal experiences with a level of
Theoretical Knowledge?
5. Designer must be passed out from a reputed Institutes with 2/3
years of Professional Experiences?
6. Designer must be passed out from a non reputed Institutes with 6/7
years of Professional Experiences?

My Second Question according to the Indian Design Context,

1. After how many years of working, a Designer gets a Senior Post?
2, 3, 4, 5, 6 ,7, 8..__________ ?

2. After how many years of working, a Designer gets a Team Lead/
Design Lead Post?
2, 3, 4, 5, 6 ,7, 8..__________ ?

3. After how many years of working, a Designer gets a Creative Head/
Art Director ?
2, 3, 4, 5, 6 ,7, 8..__________ ?

Hello everyone,
Amidst the hectic schedule of my startup, I finally got some time to write
out this introduction. Sorry for the delay, Sudhir!

I am *not* a designer by profession, but have studied design (from an
innovation perspective) on my own, and try to use IDEO-type principles in
shaping business models and products. My latest project is a long term
consulting assignment with the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) for a
nationwide "innovation grid". I am helping them with strategy evolution and
product design. I went to UCLA for my MBA, and engineering from DCE. See a
detailed bio at http://www.pyramidconsulting.in/Amit_Sharma_Bio.htm and the
linked profile is at www.linkedin.com/in/amitucla

As part my consulting and product development work, I expect to need design
help every now and then, so expect a few mails from me. Ideally I'd like to
maintain relationships with 2-3 freelancers/companies so I don't have to
search the market every time. Feel free to spam me with your
details/introduction/portfolio- I'll maintain a personally filtered database
for future use.

I think the biggest design related issues for me are:

a) Importance of design. I love India, but I have to say that companies out
here don't understand the importance and meaning of design. I personally am
a big believer, and would like to play a role in sensitizing the industry
here about what design means (its not just logos, stupid!) and what it can
do for them. I was in California for 3 years, and I think we need to use
design more cleverly in order to innovate as a nation. Like minded people-
please drop an e-mail. I'm following the design council thread- great
initiative.

b) Product innovation. Okay, so we are getting some interesting internet
based startups from India, but can we go beyond web design? What about
Indian centric design for Consumer Electronics? Are we going to continue
feeding on foreign-designed-India-customized products?

c) Design for social change. E.g.- I am interacting with Dr. A P J Abdul
Kalam's team right now, as they try to devise some ear marks (funds) for
encouraging entrepreneurship in India. I want to develop management models
(like Grameen Bank and Microfinance) that will help use such funds to
achieve scalable impact across the country. And I think design needs to play
an important role here.

Dear Kaustav,
 
Thank you so much.
 
Ours is a start-up venture. We are looking out for someone with 1-2 years of
experience, but freshers with keen interest in lifestyle products are also
welcome. We need someone with a lot of initiative and able to take end to end
responsibility from product development to production and delivery. Must be
willing to travel outside Mumbai on a short notice period.
 
We work in a very informal start-up environment,  and are very passionate about
our work and do whatever needs to be done to make our business work - whether it
is putting in long hours to meet order deadlines, or doing the smallest stuff in
the office ourselves. We are looking for someone who understands this, and is
aware of the advantages and the challenges of working in a start-up.  
 
The remuneration will be in line with the current market standards (though
currently not on the higher side) with the possibility of growing faster than
the industry rate in the next few years.
 
Do let me know if anyone is interested.
 
Can mail me on vishpala@..., or amit@...

Hi!

My name is Radeesh and I'm based in B'lore. My partner and I are working on a
lighting design store in Bangalore for which we are looking for some help and
guidance from the design community. We are both from an advertising background
and have spent reasonable number of years in the field. I also had some exposure
to Media at Star Tv before deciding to go on my own.

The idea for the store stems from our keen interest in interiors and the lack of
places offering innovative but affordable lighting solutions in terms of lamp
shades and light fittings in Bangalore, which we both experienced while
designing our respective homes. What is available is Chinese range that are very
common or Italian/ European products that are outrageously priced. Our store
will basically house 5- 6 lighting designers who would stock their products
under their brand name and would also contain some exclusive pieces that we plan
to collect from India and abroad as we travel over the next two months and we
plan to set shop by end Aug or early September.

We are looking for lighting designers who would be interested in stocking their
range which we will promote in B'lore as well as other parts of the country
through exhibitions over a period of time. We are also interested in designers
who do not specialise in lights/ lighting but can create interesting one off
piece for the store.

We will be in M'bai between 9th – 13th of July and in A'bad between 14th –
16th of July. Any one who wants to meet us personally can pls call or mail me on
the below mentioned numbers/ mail ids. We will also be visiting Delhi,
H'bad,Chennai and Pondy over the month so if we have any one from the respective
places, pls feel free to call. We are sincerely looking for some help from you
guys. Would highly appreciate if you could also spread the word around.

Awaiting loads of responses.

Dear Color People,



Colors India CMG 2009

TREND AND COLOR CONFERENCE (21st - 22nd August 2009)



HOPE IS THE COLOR OF THE FUTURE:

In a recession do we go grey to stay out of the red? Is mauve the modish
black? Are all "green" products colored viridian? Who knows the answer to
all of these color queries? YOU, that's who! This is the goal of the Colors
India CMG conference. Whether you are in the garment, appliance, retail,
interior, communication, or other Indian industry, Colors India CMG is your
platform for color design. In groups, you will engage in the lively exchange
of information and discuss the application of your conclusions to the Indian
marketplace.

This year the conference will feature two workshops (details below) with a
focused speaker session. The objective of these workshops is to catalyze
conversation on color trends and color design. Colors India 2009 in
association with The Color Marketing Group is "the" place for color info
exchange. The dynamic workshops on the 21st and 22st August will culminate
in forecast information for professionals who design and market color in all
industries.





SCHEDULE OF CONFERENCE AND WORKSHOPS

NCS COLOR WORKSHOP: Royal Bombay Yatch Club, Colaba

Friday 21st and Saturday 22nd August (10.00 am to 5.00 pm)

NCS, the Natural Color System, is a perceptual tool for color design and
communication.

A two day workshop on working with the NCS System includes presentations and
practical exercises. Beginning with the perceptive elementary colors, it is
possible to construct a three-dimensional color space, which includes the
whole color world and makes it possible to describe any conceivable color
percept. A great tool for creating fantastic color design and combinations;
it allows colors to come out right at end production.

WHO SHOULD PARTICIPATE: All designers, Branding agencies, architects,
marketing and research persons, teachers, technicians, paint industries.



TREND & COLOR DIRECTIONS 2009/2010: Royal Bombay Yatch Club, Colaba

Friday 21st and Saturday 22nd August (10.00 am to 6.00 pm)

The Colors India CMG 2008 Forecasting workshop will offer the opportunity to
explore influences and their impact on trend and future color through
discussion and visualization. In an interactive session, devoted to cross
industry participation, we share ideas, technologies and products enabling
us to arrive at the key drivers of design changes and color for the Indian
market in the short and long term. This interaction will enable us to take
inputs from colleagues in adjacent industries into our work and encourage
others to join in. So participate, contribute and you are a part of this
report back. The experience is what you take back.

WHO SHOULD PARTICIPATE: Color developers, designers and marketers who are
making trend and color decisions, eighteen months to two years ahead, attend
this session.






Please Note: Workshop and Color Forecasting are run concurrently.
Participants have to choose one.

COLOR TRENDS OF 2009 (AS DISCUSSED IN 2008)

1)      Ethnic Pride

All industries have moved towards themes of national pride in design and
color directions as people are most comfortable with the colors of our
heritage. There is an innate need to connect with our past. Yet, we continue
to constantly try and modernize traditional values for our convenience.

IMPACT ON COLOR: | Deep | Mixed | Complex |



2)      Balance

Industries are beginning to shift away from the synthetic world. Ironically,
the industrial world is choosing to be more environmental. Green building
initiatives are translating into conservation design for spaces and
products. Touch and feel will be more natural with hybrid surface materials
and coatings.

IMPACT ON COLOR: | Eco | Caring | Leisure | Flexibility | Geometric |



3)      Gender Blending

Women are beginning to explore the competitive world "outside of the home"
and men, in contradiction, are taking on more "in the home" roles. Women
want color and they are not afraid to use it! Confident is the new sexy.
There is an emergence of an endearing, softer man in urban India today. This
concept focuses on role blurring.

IMPACT ON COLOR: | Androgynous | Unisex | Mono Color |



4)      Metro Sensuality

We live busy lives in chaotic cities. We are looking for a representation of
a better life. If luxury is status then the symbol for new luxury is
simplicity. We need products to fill this void of simplicity, clean lines
with modern metro sensuality. Cool palettes of neutrals, with cosmetic
tones, and mock darks to give a sense of luxury with practicality.

IMPACT ON COLOR: | Luxury | Metallic | Urban | Techtitude | Retail
Playground |

Indian Institute of technology, Guwahati, India; Aarhus University, Denmark and
Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC), Pune, India

 

Hosted by  Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC), A Scientific
Society of Ministry of ICT, Government of India, Pune, India.

 

Venue: Pune University.

 

Wednesday and Thursday, 7-8th October 2009,
Pune, India

 

Deadline for submissions: August 3rd 2009.

============ ========= ========= ========= ========= =========

Theme and Focus:

The HUMAN WORK INTERACTION DESIGN 2009 working
conference analyzes the concept of usability in social, cultural and
organizational contexts. Analyzing usability in context is important for
connecting empirical work analysis and interaction design.. In industry, a
wealth of usability evaluation methods is used to evaluate computer software
user interfaces and other interactive products: Inspection methods, Workplace
observation, Think-Aloud Usability Test, etc. These techniques often give -
seemingly - similar results when applied in diverse social, cultural and
organizational settings, but experience shows that we need a deep understanding
of the cultural, social and organizational context to interpret the results,
and to transform it into interaction design.

 

The working conference will present current
research into and industrial experiences with usability as a way of connecting
empirical work analysis and interaction design, with a special focus on
contexts in India. Cultural usability is a comprehensive concept, which adheres
to all kinds of contexts in which humans are involved (private family, work,
public and private organizations, nature and climate, technological, etc.).

 

The purpose of the working conference is to
enable practitioners and researchers to analyze the concept of usability and
how it can be used to connect empirical work analyses and interaction designs
in different contexts. After the conference, a limited number of selected
papers will be published in an IFIP Springer book.

 

We expect the participants will be people from
industry and academia with an interest on usability, work and design in
different social, cultural and organizational contexts. The working conference
will be conducted in a good social atmosphere that invites to openness and
provides time to reflection and discussion about each of the accepted papers
and cases.

This article is utterly condescending in nature and completely
underestimates the goodwill that our society holds for people who
cannot see properly. Visually challenged people are a thousand times
more sensitive than normal people and I don't see any reason to refer
them as 'poor, poor, poor' all the time unless you took Slumdog
Millionaire as seriously as the firangs...

In my schooldays, the STD booth / pan shops were (and still are)
manned by people supported by the Blind Men's Association in their
ventures. Most students / people (no matter how mean, mischievous or
broke they were) never cheated the blind people...

I am surprised why there haven't been any suggestions on different
shaped currency notes yet! Just playing Devil's advocate...
