  • Project 7 – Essay Essentials

    As of writing this, I’m low on time so it’ll be brief. Going into project 7 I had starry eyes. Within the first two weeks of the project being given to us, I had finished the writing section of the essay. However, in typical Rob fashion, I left the proper in-text citations until the end……

  • Project 6 – sliding into your DMs

    The presentation slides were easy to make. From last years UX presentations and from what I learned at Sync the City I knew that the slides had to be simple. The first section follows a similar script to the promo video. A call to action. It was important to me to relate the problem to…

    The sage looks up from his resting place and asks me a riddle. “Why?” At this stage in the project timeline, the app needs to be finished and I didn’t have any more time to work on it. I did one 41-minute User test with a quite thorough and helpful housemate. As I didn’t have…

    As I walk the meandering dirt track that leads to the mountain I spotted a glimmer in a nearby bush. It’s a chest. I wonder what it has inside. To my surprise it’s a magical device with an inscription on it, it spells F.I.G.M.A. I tried waving the tool around a few times with no…

  • Project 5 – A short but arduous hike

    After returning back from the last adventure I started to plan my next trip.I’ve decided that I want to take it easy and I am making my way to design mountain for a short hike. I hear the hike is pleasant and easy, with a few obstacles but none I’m worried about. Although there are…
