bachelor of design computing & master of interaction design and ...

Harry Mann
For me design is essentially about the ability to
empathise.
A designed object becomes a host to interaction
and as designers we guide this experience in
such a way that it is intuitive and exciting.
I have learned that in designing I am always
creating a narrative and this directs the very
purposeful selection and placement of elements,
leading to a design outcome that is aesthetically
beautiful and eective. Today anything that can
be made digital, will be, and through the fusion
of design and computing technologies we are
ultimately changing the ways we communicate,
interact and collaborate. This is something I’m
very excited to be a part of.
Design Computing has given me the knowledge
and understanding to design and the technical
ability to bring my ideas to fruition. During my
degree I have worked with Mozilla Labs in
creating a cross-cultural social communication
tool, created an interactive game, a virtual space
for collaboration, and I’ve also traveled to South
Korea on exchange, where I was able to work
with Hyundai in creating gesture based user
interfaces for future cars.
