John Rimmer

Really enjoyed his talk, he spoke about the design and psychology behind it which is fantastic as this is what I was wanting to do for my dissertation. Talked alot about how can we move from physical to digital for example having books on your shelf makes an impression, websites such as facebook are recognising these aspects. I copied his PowerPoint presentation and he recommended a book called Jacob Nielson - Usability and a text book called Interactive Design also Donald Norman's Design of Everyday Things.

Talked and showed us alot of badly designed objects/machines that were quite funny. Definitely will be looking more at his stuff for my dissertation.
