Retreat into the future of information architecture

Tuesday, August 17th, 2004 by Keith Instone

The Asilomar Conference Grounds is the site of a second information architecture “retreat” - a chance for IAs to delve deeper into the foundations of their profession and plan its future. AIfIA was formed following the first meeting at Asilomar.

While UXnet is focused on helping each part of the user experience network connect with each other, we recognize the need for each group to “go off and be alone for a while.” The IA retreat will be a great way for the IA community to bond and determine its own future. That being said, one of the potential topics relates directly to UXnet.

  • Collaboration models: How do we work better with our peer designers and developers?

So one aspect of the retreat may indeed directly impact how information architects wish to participate in the user experience network.
