Solving business problems with A&D Chris Finlay | 10.29.2008
In 1969 at his Paris exhibition "Qu'est-ca que le Design?" (What is Design?)  Charles Eames was asked, "What are the boundaries of design?”  Eames replied, "What are the boundaries of the problem?”

DMD Experience Design
 
Experience Design in fancy terms is a … human centered innovation process
Experience Design put simply is… designing products and services that are right for people and right for businesses by: 1) Understanding peoples needs 2) Understanding how products and  services fit into peoples lives 3) Understanding business objectives
Some companies I have worked with include:
Introducing an unfamiliar process can be hard sometimes
but understanding that the difference in process is critical when innovating… Marketing > Production > User research (What has been made) (What can be made) (What should be made) Market research Engineering Marketing > Production > Experience Design approach Traditional approach
Expectation +/- Experience = Brand value  because Experience Design helps us improve brand value.
In other words marketing sets expectations… and design delivers on them.
There is lots of talk about design and innovation
but, saying you want to innovate… is like trying to fall asleep by talking about it.
We could ask Miss Cleo…
or go into a room and figure something out…
but life is too complex to rely on the lone genius to design for everyone.
and without the right perspective design creates value only for one party
but sometimes everyone can win
but sometimes everyone can win “ We can make banking faster and more convenient   for our customers while reducing our costs.” - Charlie Scharf, CEO of Retail Financial Services at Chase v •  Reduces teller labor •  Eliminates empty envelope deposits •  Digitally recognizes fraudulent checks •  Enables same day credit for deposits

Business is  half the battle!
4 business principles artists and designers need to know 1) Design creates options and business captures the value of those options 2) Businesses exist to create things people value 3) Value = Benefits - Cost  4) Business’ structure mandates highest and fastest return on investment (ROI)
ROI: a chain of logic that supports creating economic value the fastest. It is a way of  logically deciding what to do next. Based on a lot of assumptions that seem quantified but are assumptions. Business is hoping to quantify risk v. return to make a decision. About ROI – Return On Investment
Its hard for accountants to value art, design and research Jeremy Alexis,  IIT  Accountants recognize  value creation here Accounting does not do well here Accounting does well here Ship and invoice Generate product idea Conduct R&D on product concept Begin tooling / production  Begin taking orders from customers Prototype & test
Valuing Art and Design Engineering $$$ Known problem Innovation Design ----->$$$? Discovery Fine Art --------------------> $$$? Investigation
Art is often destroying value because it is economically un-valuable even though we know that the perspective art brings is invaluable. i.e. (-)ROI So how do we make the case for art? Art and design are irrational (?)
Innovation Gap Time Organizational Knowledge Innovation Gap Knowledge of how to make things Knowledge of peoples lives
Modern problems are dilemmas Which are more like mysteries… than puzzles.
“… the antennae of society.”  - Michel Blondeau Eccentric Arts “ Artists are…
Innovation adoption curve
“ The future is already here, it's just not evenly distributed.” - William Gibson,  science fiction author, Economist, December 4, 2003 We find the future faster but don’t know how to talk about it.
How do we share the abstraction of experience?
Design thinking The critical process of design 1) Ideation  2) Research  3) Analysis  4) Synthesis  5) Prototype  6) Test  7) Evaluate  8) Produce  9) Launch
And we share them through abstractions and metaphors: Tod Machover MIT http://www.ted.com/index.php/talks/tod_machover_and_dan_ellsey_play_new_music.html
Which helps us to understand complex relationships and assumptions “ Fountain”
Which are reflected at the edge of communities
That are rapidly changing and growing If  YouTube were a country it would be the 8th largest in the word. Myspace has over 230,000 people sign up every day.  There are more text messages sent everyday than there are people. From Shift Happens, X Plane
