The Interaction in Interactive TV - IxDA (New York, NY, USA)

“The Interaction in Interactive TV” by David Lipkin, Founder, Executive Vice-President of Method

Interactive Television, whether on set-top boxes or on Internet-enabled televisions, poses interesting challenges in Interaction Design. The most obvious is enabling interactions without a keyboard. But it’s also a challenge to develop metaphors for navigation, elegantly round up content, and provide ways for editors and users alike to annotate the content. We will discuss these challenges, as well as the shift in product development toward the interface as a product and the pitfalls of following blanket design guidelines.

This will be a discussion-based talk with a healthy mix of case studies.

When: Thursday, 02/21/08, 6:30pm
Where: In Soho, full details provided on RSVP (e-mail nyc-rsvp at ixda.org)
