AnthroDesign + UX Irregulars with Steve Portigal

(via Sam Ladner)

Steve Portigal is in town and for this special occasion, we’re inviting a “crossing of the streams.”

The UX Irregulars group is also invited! For those of you who don’t know the UX Irregulars, they’re a rag-tag, fugutive fleet of user experience designers who design mostly Web interactions, but also software, and sometimes crazy things like ski hills. They LOVE anthropologists. No really, they do.

Steve is the founder of Portigal Consulting, a boutique firm that helps clients to discover and act on new insights about themselves and their customers.

Anthrodesign (Toronto, ON, Canada)

Anthrodesign is a group of anthropologists, sociologists, and other design researchers.

We’re starting up a local Toronto meet up to talk about design and research. So far we’ve got a nice assortment of Ontario College of Art & Design (OCAD) faculty, independent anthropologists, human factors specialists, university types and UX types. We may even have a couple of industrial designers.

Come to the inaugural meeting. All are welcome.

Where
The Rivoli (upstairs) - 334 Queen St. W., Toronto, Canada
