post.lyWow - what an UTTERLY incredibly ad for seatbelt safety #tdc10
Paul's product looked interesting; might go and look at it when I'm back at my desk. #TDC10

Cool video: 'Embrace Life - Always Wear Your Seatbelt'

Enjoying the session from the Livecast Lounge with @ZenLenton. Lauren Laverne introducing Gilbert Cockton #TDC10
Extreme accessability design, this should be interesting #TDC10
Gilbert Cockton (ex UoS) - thought I recognised him. Gave a decent presentation on user interaction at #CRMCS a year or 2 ago #tdc10
"Embrace life, always a seatbelt" amazing video shown at #TDC10
dha.liGilbert Cockton says that you only know your design process when you've finished designing #tdc10
"Embrace life, always wear your seatbelt" amazing video shown at #TDC10
dha.li#tdc10 I remember doing some work on the brain injury visual interface as part of my BSc at Sunderland Uni in 2000
Good to see Gilbert raising Design Thinking'd profile. Ofc, I'm not biased :) #TDC10
Hopefully will get an hour or so to catch @theIDI's stream of #tdc10 before my interview.
Gilbert Cockton is urging clarity in design by identifying three factors What? Who? and Why? The choices you make as a designer are abut mediating the digital, human, investigative and axiological.
Liveblog from #tdc10 "eventually Everything Connects (says Gilbert Cockton quoting Charles Eames)
bit.lyI'm gonig to have to concede defeat on the human usability/interaction session. Too much, too early....#tdc10
Morning @wadds Thanks for the mention :)

#TDC10 Eames-eventually everything connects - people, ideas, objects. Connections give you the quality
watching the #TDC10 livestream thanks to NorthenNet, Gilbert Cockton on on design thinking
"Don't draw a specification on political grounds; you'll design something that won't work" Gilbert Cockton at #tdc10
I think my bump is enjoying all this usability and tech talk. Gymnastics are occuring. #TDC10
I'm lost...#tdc10
Lovely morning down by the Tyne... Making the most of the light, before returning to windowless dark place for #tdc10 'Business 3.0' session
He's saying that you need a clear basis for the evaluation of the design - receptiveness, credibility and expressivity [bit of a jargon fest now!]
Pretty intense stuff. Important work but I'm hoping someone breaks wind to lighten the mood.. #tdc10
Cockton: humans are a key part of the raw material. If you haven't seen a design/system in use, you haven't seen it completed. #tdc10
How do you do this - by making ethical decisions and making the choices explicit - this is important - looking at usability.
Could this approach to design possibly result in a urinal that doesn't splash back? #tdc10
This is really academic stuff. Quite a shift from the level and themes of the conference so far. Interesting though. #tdc10
Professor Gilbert Cockton - school of design Northumbria is talking #TDC10 "my brain has melted.. i am lost in the dark of data"
This is all going straight over my head..! #tdc10
Cockton cited the work of Charles Eames (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_and_Ray_Eames) and contrasted his more democratic approach with the Bauhaus Movement.
"This is all going straight over my head..! #tdc10" -@StuRobarts I think I entered the wrong room today
Loving how the speakers are referencing previous speakers talks, even subtly. #TDC10
Gilbert Cockton is obviously a very intelligent man but this is going straight over my head. Whoosh! #TDC10
Cockton is showing us a Worth Map, created by a multi-disciplinary team. #tdc10
Also quite complex slides. Almost too much data to be able to absorb it in this setting. #tdc10
SO worth boards are effectively User Journeys without people. #TDC10
He's talking about using 'Worth Boards' and 'Worth Webs' instead of mood boards and saying that this is a 'meta-principle'.
Apple now the largest tech company in the world - not surprised given the amount of apple kit at #tdc10
#tdc10 From Newcastle Central, what's the quickest/easiest way to the Sage? Is there a Metro nearby? @thinkingdigital
I'm very pleased to report that I am in a darkened room after the last talk; my head is going round and round #tdc10
Spatial Computer Interface stuff with Mary Anne De...something...very excited about this one #tdc10
