Expressing Auckland

I’m heading up to Auckland next week for the BeST Awards on the friday night so while in the neighbourhood thought I’d check out “Expression around the Clock” on the Thurdsay morning too.

It’s a half day event and should be quite interesting with the event keynote presentation by August de los Reyes, Creative Director for the Windows Platform Core Innovation Team.

Nigel Parker (Web Development Advisor, Microsoft NZ) and Nas Khan (UX Consultant, Infinity Solutions) will follow, showcasing how Microsoft Expression Blend and Microsoft Silverlight can create compelling User Experiences for the web and the Windows client. The event will wrap up with a Panel Discussion titled: “Merging Culture, Design, Business, and Technology: What? So What? Now What?”

I’ve been getting into the new Expression Studio tools recently with a few funky projects at Provoke and with the birth of the Zamdes User Group (with support from our very own Isha) in Wellington it’s a rather opportune time for events such as this to occur.

I’ll post my views on the event once I get back…

Shall we begin…?

Hello.
I’ve finally started my blog, who knows where it will go but that’s not of concern.
