[iai-discuss] NYC IxDA Event: WireFARM 2006, April 13th @ 6:30 pm

Fri Mar 17 21:54:57 GMT 2006

NYC IxDA IS PLEASED TO ANNOUNCE
WireFARM 2006

Come to WireFARM '06 and share your prototyping techniques!
Interaction Designers use many tools to mock-up user interfaces,
including paper and pencil, PowerPoint, Visio, Dreamweaver, Photoshop,
and Fireworks. We also tend to grow our own techniques, and rarely
have a chance to share them.

We will feature five 10-minute presentations from local designers,
each showing off current best practices in prototyping. We also hope
to bring in a surprise guest to preview some very cool next-generation
tools. We are looking for presenters! If you are interested in giving
a short (10-minute) presentation on your techniques, please e-mail a
short proposal to nyc at ixda.org. Please include the tool you intend to
use and the type of prototype you would like to demonstrate.
