DESIGNING OUR CONNECTED FUTURE
The era of connectedness has created a world of increasing complexity. Design, UX and UI are the keys to making sense of this overwhelming and convoluted landscape. Master that intersection between connectivity and design and you’ll emerge as a future leader. GigaOM RoadMap examines how product design, user interfaces, and the underlying frameworks will evolve over the next several years to advance and humanize connected technology.
- The Age of the Beautiful Web: Visual experiences are at the heart of today’s web and mobile success stories, from Instagram to Pinterest to Tumblr. Minimalism and beauty are now guiding principles, and the visual web has delivered a renaissance of artisan culture. We’ll dissect how these themes are shaping our connected gadgets, our culture and ourselves.
- Next-Gen Platforms: The “new” platforms — our cars and our bodies — require redefined UI that incorporates new mediums like touch, voice, and sensors. They’ll also have lasting effects on our culture as the “trip to the mechanic” is replaced with software downloads.
- How the Cloud Delivers Creativity: Big data and the cloud are inspiring creativity by bringing designers more information, better algorithms and more powerful computing. We’ll explore design in the age of the cloud, delving into crowdsourcing experiments in design frameworks and other unorthodox ways designers are navigating the cloud.
- Connected Consumers: Thanks to connectivity, our retail experience is becoming more personalized, mobile and frictionless. As the new web and mobile sharing economy emerges, the concept of “buying” has been turned upside down. Take a glimpse at the future of connected consumerism.
