Interaction Designer

In the same way that industrial designers have shaped our everyday life through objects that they design for our offices and for our homes, interaction design is shaping our life with interactive technologies – computers, telecommunications, mobile phones, and so on. If I were to sum up interaction design in a sentence, I would say that it’s about shaping our everyday life through digital artifacts – for work, for play, and for entertainment.”

Design Quotes

Some of the quotes on design I found while surfing

  • “You can design and create, and build the most wonderful place in the world. But it takes people to make the dream a reality.” – Walt Disney
  • “Let the viewer rule the idiot Box and not get ruled by it.” – Myself
  • "Television is the first truly democratic culture - the first culture available to everybody and entirely governed by what the people want. The most terrifying thing is what people do want." – Clive Barnes
  • “Man's mind, once stretched by a new idea, never regains its original dimensions.” - Oliver Wendell Holmes
  • “A new idea is delicate. It can be killed by a sneer or a yawn; it can be stabbed to death by a quip and worried to death by a frown on the right man's brow.” - Ovid quotes (Ancient Roman classical Poet and Author of Metamorphoses, 43 BC-17)
  • “Every time a man puts a new idea across he finds ten men who thought of it before he did - but they only thought of it”
