Susan and Guthrie Weinschenk work together as The Team W. They like to take behavioural economics, neuroscience and behavioural psychology; combine them, and apply them to design. We chatted to them after the Stockholm leg of their “How to get people to take action” workshop tour.

Episode 160 is a link show. James and Per discuss three articles that have grabbed their attention.
Article one is Emojis: Tools for Emotions Communicating affect in text messages by Monica Riordan “Being unbound by linguistic rules, they engage a user in considering the vast potential emojis have in communication.”
The second article we discuss is Why your design team should hire a writer by John Saito. “The next time you’re wrangling with words, just consider it. What if you added a writer to your design team? A writer might be that one missing piece to your puzzle.”.
Our third article is Long Term Hidden Text Experiment by Shai Aharony. “Google was no longer content with just reading the code of the page, it actually rendered it so that it could see the page as a human would see it.”. SEO and design and hidden texts.
(Listening time: 35 minutes)

We locked Mike Monteiro in a room at From Business To Buttons here in Stockholm and had a chat. “So, do you want to talk about design or politics?” That was the question that Mike posed to the audience at the start of his presentation earlier in the day.
So we asked Mike the same. Suffice to say, we get into politics, ethics, business culture, and very much into how all of that is part of the fabric of design. Read More

We got the chance to talk to Donna Lichaw again, this time in person, at From Business To Buttons. We discussed the complexity and usefulness of stories and storymapping when working with enterprise products – when the hero (user) of your product isn’t your customer.

Eric Meyer joined us straight off stage at From Business To Buttons. Through his own tragic exprience after the death of his young daughter Rebecca to cancer, Eric explains to us how the ideal outcome we design for isn’t the only outcome. We need to use our design skills to humanise the web.
How are designers tackling the idea of ethics? We start the episode with Alan using politics and democracy as a vehicle for highlighting the importance of ethics in our work as digital practitioners and the massive impact our work has on the world.
We are the creators of the channels of misinformation and we can do something about it.

We talk Closure experiences with Joe Macleod. The lack of endings was something that Joe kept noticing again and again. There are so many examples in the digital space where there wasn’t an end, or there was an expectation of controlled or ability to end – but the possibility of closure just doesn’t exist. The fabric of the internet is built to enable it to survive; to be eternal, yet endings – and death – are natural.
