Ignite

Ignite is a format of short talks in which each speaker gets five minutes and 20 slides that advance automatically every 15 seconds. Three Ignite talks are recorded here, from 2009 to 2012.

Jeff Veen’s Great designers steal (2009) is filed under design. Whitney Hess’s Design Principles: The Philosophy of UX (2011) deals with design principles and user experience. Hilary Mason’s Replacing Yourself with a Very Small Shell Script (2012) comes from the world of big data.

The topics also include information design and interaction design. The short format suits ideas that can be put across in a few minutes.
