&654/ Essential Slides: Interaction Design History, Overview

| View Comments |

Karen McGrane has a fetish for pictures of old mainframes. Well, me too.

In her own words:

"Practitioners in other design disciplines -- architecture, graphic design, fashion -- would be expected to have some grounding in historical movements and trends. But most people have no formal education in interaction design, and so they've never learned the roots of the discipline. I taught a short course in IxD history in the MFA program in Interaction Design at SVA, and I hope that the students in the program know enough now to at least recognize key people and events when they come up, even if their introduction was a whirlwind 5-week tour."

This is week 1. Course overview.
