“The Influencers”
We all draw influence from somewhere. Whether it be from history, academia, industry, or whether we look to future trends. The work we do has been impressed, whether explicitly or implicitly, by the leadership or direction of others. Who were some of those influencers, and how are they present in our work? Hear from four lecturers how masters in their domains have dominated markets, inspired their own work, or changed the course, so that we might make some predictions about the next generation of influence leaders.
Jason Santa Maria
Jason has been recognized for designing stylistic and imaginative web interfaces that maintain a balance of usability and readability. Jason is a celebrated speaker worldwide at such conferences as South By Southwest, An Event Apart, @media, and Webstock. He also maintains a popular website where he frequently holds discussions on design for the web.
About the Lecture Series
The Dot Dot Dot Lecture Series is meant for broad explorations of interaction design, business, and aesthetic inspiration. Practitioners and thought leaders give short talks in an informal setting. Wisdom will be revealed and methods will be shared in a environment intended to satisfy both social and scholarly pursuits.
About MFA in Interaction Design
The MFA in Interaction Design program trains students to research, analyze, prototype, and design concepts in their business, social, and cultural contexts. Today, business success depends on the presence of a well-designed, engaging experience, and the new MFA in Interaction Design program explores the strategic role of interaction design in shaping everyday life.

One thing I'd really love to see is a write-up that outlines how you're updating your site, including some of the technical details. I've done a lot of digging into the back-end of your site, but still, an article from the designer himself would be really helpful and educational. :)
I've been inspired! I'm talking with my content guy a way that we could maybe a similar thing with some of our newspaper sites. Seems like it might be too much for the day-to-day stories, but perfect for in-depth investigative pieces.
I can no figure out what the nature of the media has to do with the fact nobody in his right mind would put money into expensive customs designs for which readers do not want to pay anything.
Another reason for the difference might be the fact that it's so easy to publish web content: you don't really need training or any expensive equipment, so no tradition has developed.
I also think website designers have a fear of hiding content, which results in the somewhat busy designs you refer to.
Thanks for posting this.
whats exciting is that websites are such a major part of business tools now, that companies can no longer get away with poorly designed sites. At least not for long...
I'd love to see Jason talk at An Event Apart!
New Zealand seems not to have awoken from the print to web transition yet and many high profile (locally) companies still get away with bad or no website designs, hopefully this will change sooner rather than later.
