TOC 2012: Tim Carmody, "Changing Times, Changing Readers: Let's Start With Experience" - YouTube
february 2012 by robertogreco
Notes here by @tealtan:
"unusual contexts in writing / reading text
“In a hyperliterate society, the vast majority of reading is not consciously recognized as reading.”
“What readers expect is more important than what readers want.”
Bill Buxton: “every tool is the best at something and the worst at something else”
skills, path-dependency, learning effects
“…we actually like constraints once we're in them.”"
And notes from @litherland:
"11:40: “I do things like … just obsess about weird little details. So, for instance … like, how do you do text entry in a Netflix app on the Wii? You know? I think about this a lot.” Your many other talents notwithstanding, Tim, you may have missed your calling as a designer. /
18:30: “I think it’s a tragedy that we have not been able to figure out a good interface for pen and ink on reading devices.” Holy grail. My dream for years. I would give anything. I would give anything to be smart enough to figure this out."
