Amy Dickens: The three Ws

The February 2nd meet up is going to be presented by Amy Dickens (@RedRoxProjects (https://twitter.com/RedRoxProjects))

Abstract:

Amy Dickens from the Mixed Reality Lab at The University of Nottingham will be giving a talk on three important questions you should ask when designing interfaces for users. Amy's research is in gesture controlled sound for users with complex disabilities and in her talk she will guide you through some of the expected and not so expected criteria she encounters in her work. Amy will also talk about developing communities as a GitHub Campus Expert and her work towards encouraging more women into technology roles.

Before/After the Meetup:

A few members will likely be in The Font (http://thefontleicester.co.uk/) beforehand for a drink and a bite to eat, and afterwards there'll be a group heading to Soar Point (or somewhere else nearby) for a social catch up.

Parking:

Deacon Street car park is where people usually park, the postcode is LE2 7DP. (There's also spots on the street directly outside the gateway building but they're usually all taken up!) Deacon Street is available from 6pm onwards as we have permission from the University to use the car park.
