Announcing keynote Bill Verplank!

We are pleased and honored to announce interaction design pioneer Bill Verplank as our final invited keynote speaker. If you’re a new to the field, Bill is a human-factors engineer with an extraordinary career in design, research, and education. He’s been teaching and creating design-related curricula since he was a MIT graduate student. He lectures regularly in human factors, user-interface design and, most recently, “new music controllers” at Stanford. Between 1986-1992, while consulting with IDEO to bring graphical user-interfaces into the product design world, Bill began calling the work “interaction design” instead of “user-interface design”. Consider for a moment how our field has burgeoned since then, in such a short time. Wow!

Bill completes our stellar array of keynote speakers who, together with emerging voices from our community of practice, will engage Interaction11 attendees in state-of-the-world discussion. Full program details coming October 1!
