I’m delighted to announce Design Talk, the podcast for the MEX community.

Co-hosted by Alex Guest and me, Marek Pawlowski, it’s a fortnightly audio programme exploring the intersection of emerging technologies, user behaviour and great digital experiences. In episode 1:

• We discuss design implications of bringing digital intelligence to our physical surroundings.
• An in-depth interview with Patrizia Bertini, Wipro Digital’s user research director and Lego Serious Play facilitator.
• A user story all about a little face and a big screen.

Design Talk is, quite literally, a voice for the MEX community.  As MEX enters its 12th year as an initiative to improve user experience, the podcast brings an additional dimension to exploring themes shaping digital industry. We can go in-depth on user experience issues raised in our writing and events, as well as featuring interviews with the talented and inspirational people who make up this 12,500-strong community of digital pioneers around the world.
