Holographic Academy Envisioning Workshop
The Holographic Academy’s Envisioning Workshop is a design-led multi-day event that we put on for our agency partners in the Academy’s Agency Readiness Program. The workshops serve as a kickoff to the program and showcase our internal design process for problem solving in the Mixed Reality space. The goal of the workshops are to shift the mindset from thinking about fixed-screen experiences to thinking about experiences that exist in our physical environment.
Our design team serves as subject matter experts for designing for HoloLens and Mixed Reality. My role is to facilitate workshops and lead the design exercises throughout the course of the events.
Xbox One Application Summit
The Xbox One Application Summit was a series of developer conferences in Redmond, London, and Singapore put on by Xbox in the Summer of 2014. I spoke on behalf of Xbox Design in regards to the framework, UX model, and design best practices for the platform.
Part of my job, aside from speaking at the conferences, was working directly with app partners to provide design guidance for app experiences on Xbox One. This was a model started by Xbox design and has now been adopted Microsoft wide.
