This time we have two interesting talks by Marta and Martin:
Geek Out, Design Better: How Fiction Inspires Great UX/UI
with Marta Dziabiola, UX/UI Designer @dmcgroup
Fiction offers valuable lessons in human behavior, emotional connection, and problem-solving — all essential for effective design. It also sharpens our eye for design, a key skill in today’s UI-driven world.
In this short talk, we’ll explore how narrative and visual techniques can inspire intuitive interfaces, foster empathy, and elevate design. Unlock your creative potential through the power of fiction — geeks and nerds of all kinds are warmly welcome!
The Usability of a Bookshop
with Martin Kastler, UX Manager & PO at ÖGB-Verlag
Working with users in a 3D space takes things to a whole new level. ÖGB-Verlag utilized eye-tracking technology to discover how clients navigate their bookshop, what they pay attention to, and how to enhance the bookshopping experience. This talk reviews the findings and lessons learned from two rounds of eye-tracking conducted by FH Technikum Wien.
