Hi to our Designers, Researchers, Dev friends. You're Invited!

Join AIGA Boston and WillowTree in the second year of our GENUX Symposium | Discussion on Audiences, Research and Digital Design. Speakers invited to participate are experts within the UXUI design, research, social science and technology fields.

This year our theme is Design for Positive Change. The discussions are crafted for you our audience — working practitioners in the field of UXUI; designers, researchers, social scientists and developers to think about how we as creators can continue to make positive change. You'll have a fantastic opportunity to genuinely connect with experts in the field, learn about ideas to explore further, and get excited with exchange of ideas to help you be smarter than when you walked in the door.

About GENUX

Communication and interaction design has almost fully transitioned to digital since the invention of human-computer interaction products in the 1980s. Since the iPhone debut in 2007, the dependency on devices in our everyday lives expedited. And in that time, designers have adapted to the demand. Designers now engage with audiences in new contexts — we research how audiences interact with our work in new ways, and design experiences that range from influencing consumer decisions to solving problems for real people.

As we continue on this path through Generation UX, we ask: how might we as designers bring our collective experiences together to engage new audiences, research deeper insights, and advance our craft for the experiences to come?
