Geek Out, Design Better: How Fiction Inspires Great UX/UI

with Marta Dziabiola, UX/UI Designer @dmcgroup
Fiction offers valuable lessons in human behavior, emotional connection, and
problem-solving — all essential for effective design. It also sharpens our eye for
design, a key skill in today’s UI-driven world.
In this short talk, we’ll explore how narrative and visual techniques can inspire
intuitive interfaces, foster empathy, and elevate design. Unlock your creative potential through the power of fiction — geeks and nerds of all kinds are warmly welcome!

The Usability of a Bookshop

with Martin Kastler, UX Manager & PO at ÖGB-Verlag
Working with users in a 3D space takes things to a whole new level. ÖGB-Verlag utilized eye-tracking technology to discover how clients navigate their bookshop, what they pay attention to, and how to enhance the bookshopping experience. This talk reviews the findings and lessons learned from two rounds of eye-tracking conducted by FH Technikum Wien.

13 Lessons Over 31 Years

Kevin H Richardson, PhD, Senior Director of User Experience and Product Management @ invidi.com

I began working in the field of User Experience more than 30 years ago. Between then and now, a number of interesting things have happened; User Experience has moved from engineering to psychology to “design,” and has gone from “unnecessary” to required. Desktop software, web sites, mobile applications, games, web-based business software, voice interfaces – User Experience is everywhere and customers believe we, as UXers, know what we’re doing.

Things have improved for us as a profession, but I still see a repeating pattern of questions and mistakes being made by UX professionals. I will discuss a number of these, including portfolios, the design process, standards, complex business software design, and other lessons. I will also provide downloadable training materials for the group.

At the next meetup in January we meet at Moonshiner in Vienna with two interesting talks.

Setting up a design system project

by Orsolya Fülöp and Daniel Pillinger

The setup process is a pivotal stage in crafting a cohesive design system. It begins with evaluating existing design elements, followed by collaborative definition of core principles. Implementation involves creating reusable components and patterns. Our systematic approach establishes a foundation for consistency, efficiency, and collaboration in design and development.

Labelling The Web

by Nicolas Bernadowitsch, Senior UX Designer, Accenture Song

Sometimes we forget to add labels to user interface elements. How does that happen and why is it a problem? Is it even necessary? Let’s talk about accessible names and labelling the web.

Tuesday, 13th of December 2022, 7pm at Gasthaus Schöne Perle, Grosse Pfarrgasse 2, 1020 Wien (Google Maps).

Since our summer get-together has been a great success, we thought that the December meetup would be a good opportunity to do something similar. So we’re meeting at Gasthaus Schöne Perle this time, a modern take on traditional Austrian restaurants in the second district (about 3 minutes from U2 Taborstraße).

You can bring 2 slides, share stories, discuss new and interesting books and enjoy some good food and drinks as well.

Please note that we have a table for 15 people. We don’t know if it will be possible to accomodate more. So head over to our page at meetup.com and check if there are seats available. And please also update your RSVP in case you won’t attend so that others can take your spot. Thank you!

See you on December 13th at Schöne Perle, 19:00!

Together with other UX communities from Austria we will celebrate World Usability Day 2022 with a collaborative #WUDAustria – event.
You can join remotely or visit one of the onsite events (where the online events will be streamed as well). Please register here: tinyurl.com/wudaustria
