I am now sitting in my cozy Amsterdam apartment for the last week and I thought I’d update you fine folks as to what I’m up to in the next month or so. First and foremost I’ll be relocating (thanks to a project with Blast) to Newbury, near London, for the month of Septmeber and so definitely spending most of my weekends in town!
I can’t wait, there are so many things happening in London I want to see, like the London Design Festival, friends to visit, and pints to be had.
Then in mid-october I will be attending the Nearfield communications workshop at NordiCHI (although I won’t be attending the conference itself as it is really expensive). I wrote a position paper entitled “Responsible design of connected objects” which is very much based on my thesis project Stint and a reflection on the way, as industrial designers we should consider the opportunities of RFID use and their impact on perception, use and disposal. I will be going there a day early perhaps to have a look around Oslo so if you’re there, ping me!
