UX: The Bill Hicks Way

William Melvin "Bill" Hicks was an American stand-up comedian, philosopher and a satirist. Widely recognised as one of the world's greatest stand-up comedians, his premature death aged 32 in 1994 left a legacy that continues to this day.

In this entertaining talk, Ian Fenn will demonstrate what interaction designers can learn from Bill's approach, beginning with his much-revered honesty.

The talk will encourage UX professionals to look to other creative and skilled disciplines for inspiration and impart key guiding principles that should serve them well throughout their work.
