A one day BarCamp in Richmond, London for anyone involved or interested in user experience design, interaction design, information architecture or usability.
For anyone unfamiliar with the BarCamp model, it’s a grass-roots ‘unconference’ born from the desire for people to share and learn in an open environment. All attendees give a talk, demo or some kind of session, and all are treated equally. No headliners, no product pitches, just a friendly (if intense) event focused on sharing and socialising as well as learning new stuff. Paraphasing The Rules Of Barcamp:
* You do talk about BarCamp.
* You do blog about BarCamp.
* No pre-scheduled presentations, no tourists.
* Presentations will go on as long as they have to or until they run into another presentation slot.
* If this is your first time at BarCamp, you HAVE to present. (Actually, this applies whether it’s your first or tenth BarCamp. All attendees present. It’s part of the fun.)
