Evergreen Podcasts presents The Katz Walk

When we think of creativity, it's natural to define it through the lens of the specific craft we directly relate to. I'm a designer and musician, both professionally and personally. And even though I associate myself with both, it has taken me a long time to embrace my music background as a tool in my design work. Our conversation today explores the convergence of music, technology, and design in process, methodology, and the creation of experimental musical instruments. It's part one of a discussion with Haig Armen - professor, designer, and musician living in Vancouver, British Columbia. For the last 10+ years, Haig has led the Interaction Design program at Emily Carr University of Art + Design. His research explores music technology design, focusing on new gestural interfaces, data sonification, and music visualization. His most recent efforts are in design-led entrepreneurship and creating new musical instruments using emerging technologies. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Convergence of Music, Technology, and Design with Haig Armen

In part two of my discussion with Derek Hess, we discuss his process for creating his art, from inspiration to putting lead and ink to paper, to printing. For more than 30 years, Derek has created art that has elevated musicians and music scenes, brought awareness to mental illness, and evoked, sometimes uncomfortably, emotions in the people the experience it across the globe.

Process Episode - from Inspiration through Print Making with Derek Hess.

There is something that drives great artists in a direction that they can call their own. It's a niche that somehow draws the person experiencing the art into an emotional state in very specific and personal ways. But very few artists have taken this gift and applied it to create things greater than the art itself. That's what our guest, Derek Hess, has done. Derek is a prolific artist that has played in a key role in building movements in his hometown of Cleveland, Ohio, and across the globe. We'll explore his journey from frying wings in the basement of the Euclid Tavern, to playing a key role in the resurgence of the rock poster art scene in the early '90s, to providing a platform and safe space for people, like himself, to share their experience living with mental illness.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Designing Movements through Art with Derek Hess

Artificial Intelligence is often given a bad rap. It has an ever-increasing role as the supervillain in everything from science fiction to the nightly news. But is Artificial Intelligence to blame for the unintended mishaps or misuse of the technology? Behind every algorithm and every line of code, there is a human being. These people wield an ever-increasing amount of power over our lives. Our future will inevitably be impacted by code; it will keep us safe, it will take us to where we need to go, it will manage our finances, and myriad other situations. In this episode, we'll talk with Carol Smith, Senior Research Scientist in Human-Machine Interaction at Carnegie Mellon University’s Software Engineering Institute and former UX researcher Uber ATG and UX Design Manager at IBM Watson. We'll discuss the role of ethics in technology and more specifically, what it means to create Ethical Artificial Intelligence. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In part two of my discussion with iconic artist and designer, Oliver Barrett, we dig into his process. We specifically focus on a single work he did as part of the 10th-anniversary celebration of the release of the film The Dark Knight. The day after recording this episode, his Dark Knight poster sold out in less than 1 minute of release at the opening of San Diego Comic-Con. Learn more about your ad choices.

Developing a unique style as a designer is a journey. Being able to translate that style to both fine art and commercial applications while maintaining your signature stamp takes raw ambition and persistence, craft, and creativity. That is Oliver Barrett in a nutshell. His unique style has been applied to some of the world’s most iconic brands, like Amazon, Nike, ESPN, Apple, and Marvel Studios. In today's episode, we'll talk with him about his career and development as an artist and designer, and even a little bit on the time we shared playing in the hardcore band, Above This Fire.

In part two of our discussion with Karl Fast, we take a deep dive into how our bodies and physical surroundings are used as tools and actors in the process of cognition and understanding - that understanding is not something that solely happens in the mind but is inextricably linked to artifacts of our surroundings. Karl Fast is a former professor of User Experience Design and Information Architecture, an Information Futurist, and the co-author of the book, Figure It Out: Getting from Information to Understanding.

Embodied Learning with Karl Fast

Throughout the history of civilization, we have seen an ever-increasing need and ability to create, store, and share information. But as our ability to access information grows exponentially, are we as designers, focusing too narrowly on the short-term; designing, developing, and shipping product based on the information and technology available to us today and ignoring what the future might have in store for us? In this episode, Karl Fast, a former professor, the co-author of Figure It Out: Getting from Information to Understanding, and an Information Futurist, explores how we might approach the challenges associated with the exponential growth of information in our uncertain future.

Information Futurism with Karl Fast

Complexity is all around us. From our social systems to the products and services we create, complexity lurks beneath what might seem to be the most simple solutions. If we ignore it, the consequences might haunt us long into the future in ways we didn't foresee. But if we approach complexity more systematically, we can better understand the potential impact of design decisions further up- and downstream. In the second in our two-part conversation with Erik Dahl, we'll discuss how modeling can help us make sense of complexity so that we can better understand the constraints and opportunities in anything we have a hand in designing.

Systems and Sensemaking with Erik Dahl

As a designers, how do we define and approach practice? Athletes practice before a competition and musicians practice before a performance. Do we, as designers, live by those same standards? In this episode, Erik Dahl, a seasoned UX consultant, educator at the Copenhagen Institute of Interaction Design, co-founder of the Midwest UX conference, and ultramarathoner, dives deeply into the philosophy and execution of practice.

Practicing Design with Erik Dahl

Collaboration is a critical element of design. It facilitates the cross-pollination of ideas, concepts, and diverse perspectives. What happens when collaboration in a physical, face-to-face sense becomes at best much more difficult and at worst, explicitly outlawed? If this was some time in the not-so-distant past, we would brush this off as science fiction. But the pandemic of 2020 made it a reality. In this episode, Jim Kalbach, Head of Customer Experience at Mural and expert workshop facilitator, will discuss what collaboration means today and into an uncertain future.
