"Writing about music is like dancing about architecture." The frustrating thing to me about threads like this in our lovely ecosystem is that most of us seem to be on the same page, but we misunderstand each other a lot-- mostly because creative types like to think we are misunderstood :-).
Judging from past threads, abstract discussions about practices will always degenerate into an academic discussion. Call yourself a UX designer, an IA, an IxD, whatever. But know that the lines are blurry, that UX is an amorphous umbrella for an intersection of practices, and that there can be other places where these practices can plug in. Are we really on opposite ends of the universe? And if we are, paint us a picture of what it would look like, kinda like Chris Fahey did back there in describing a conference. Then we're discussing, huffing, and puffing about concrete concepts instead of thrashing on thought experiments. - Nasir ________________________________________________________________ Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)!
