IDblog ... an information design weblog

Patrick Whitney on HCD

Another failed weblogs.com ping sent me browsing MT's activity log again. Today's failed search term from the log is Patrick Whitney, who is Director of the Institute of Design at the Illinois Institute of Technology.

I've just printed out an interview he did with the Danish Design Center last spring on Why Human-Centered Design is the Design of the Future (pdf).

This page from IIT is probably full of lots of other interesting fodder as well, but I'm off to one of my last classes for the semester.
