#UXdefinitions

This is an ongoing project featuring UX definitions.

I’m still alive!

... I write whenever I have something to share, which recently hasn't been that often.

If it's been quiet, it might be because my alter-ego, Seamstress Sophie, has been busy making things.

Do you like quotes?

  • This is a sheet of A3, stuck to the wall, at the top of a staircase where there are a table, four chairs and a fan. From the realm of creepy #bureaucracy and #paperSigns. #UK #permanentresident
  • Newest #lifehack made with #leather. A bracelet for office's building-access fob which also has #grind's loyalty number on it (those guys have the worst #UX for #loyalty within the coffee-ordering flow I have EVER seen!! They need to enter a lengthy number into their POS after you have paid...) This is going to free my hands to grab my breakfast and get me into the building without dropping anything. It also means I'll never forget the fob when going to the loo... It's tough for women!! We have no #pockets or places to clip these things!! I cannot wait for the day all security and payment doo-hickies (technical term) can be handled through a single wrist-worn device!! #UX #wearables #lifehack #leather #leatherworking #design #officelife #startuplife #pocketsForWomen #crazyIdeas
  • Guess wheeere? Beautiful sunny afternoon, where I randomly talked to a complete stranger about photography, nested images and meta jokes, surrealism, society, religion, philosophy, abortion, mercy, self-agency, despair, and many more topics which are normally never, ever broached in typical company. It was AWESOME! And the best antidote & detox to my over-active brain's sado-masochistic need to get ready for tomorrow's workshop. Time for a cocktail and some writing before I crash! #tired #bedtime #amsterdam #Iamsterdam #random
  • Hey @instagram / @facebook #UX people, I've been getting rid of ads all day, and I'd really like a fourth option in this "why don't you want to see this ad" list.
  • I made #espadrilles!! Spent the afternoon with @fehrtrade and her @prym.consumer espadrille-making kit!!! The purple silicone disk barely visible in the pic was a lifesaver (or finger-saver!!!) for hand-stitching this. A-mazing! I wish I had one to use for my #leather projects. -- #seamstressSophie #memade #craftday #sewing #handstitched #canvas #shoes #handmadeshoes #handmade
  • New job on #wonderWoman release day... so... Following positive reinforcement from many friends (all geeks) on twitter and facebook, I did it. I'm wearing my Wonder Woman t-shirt on the first ever day at a new job. Part of me worries about first impressions and gravitas (right, @emily73?), but I'm also childishly and grannyishly excited to use it as a litmus test for assessing the geek quotient of the office crew. Photo is of me sneaking breakfast nearby. #whatcouldpossiblygowrong #firstImpressions #leadUX #newJob
  • Every month or so I have one of those "I really should change my blog" moments. Today, I am going to progress my idea of a month ago about "what sort of projects can you hire a UXer for" and see how far I can get it along the - newly redecided - page on my blog route. Despite having new ideas and inventing new ways of doing things all the time, my content design is still all boxes and lines. It's been like that since I made my first website in 1997... Though back then I probably still mostly thought in code. The delicious #almondFlatWhite is by the fantastic @chairsandcoffee crew. And the coloured A5 pad is by @frompaperchase. -- #content #blog #blogging #websitedesign #doodles #behindTheScenes
  • Freshened up the #blueHair #secretpanel into a much stronger shade, and got a new haircut!!! Same as the old one :) simple straight trim for the summer months. Photo from yesterday. -- By @spookyruno at @notanothersalon. -- #haircut #colour #creativeColour #teal #blue #bluehairdontcare
  • Making the most of our #kewgardens friends card :) --- #instasummer #kew #flowers #daisy #macro
