Playing tunes.
I wanna build a spaceship, go to the Moon, salvage all the junk that’s up there, bring it back and sell it.
That tracks with what I wrote about in the sequel to that post:
By theorizing well in advance of data, science fiction provides a framework for developing and testing ethical standards for the treatment of AI.

If you’ve signed up to the UX London newsletter then this won’t be news to you, but more speakers have been added to the line-up.
Steph Troeth will be giving a workshop on day one. That’s the day with a strong focus on research, and when it comes to design research, Steph is unbeatable. You can hear some of her words of wisdom in an episode of the Clearleft podcast all about design research.
Heldiney Pereira will be speaking on day two. That’s the day with a focus on content design. Heldiney previously spoke at our Content By Design event and it was terrific—his perspective on content design as a product designer is invaluable.
Lauren Pope will also be on day two. She’ll be giving a workshop. She recently launched a really useful content audit toolkit and she’ll be bringing that expertise to her UX London workshop.
Day three is going to have a focus on design systems (and associated disciplines like design engineering and design ops). Both Laura Yarrow and Inayaili León will be giving talks on that day. You can expect some exciting war stories from the design system trenches of HM Land Registry and GitHub.
I’ve got some more speakers confirmed but I’m going to be a tease and make you wait a little longer for those names. But check out the line-up so far! This going to be such an excellent event (I know I’m biased, but really, look at that line-up!).
June 28th to 30th. Tobacco Dock, London. Get your ticket if you haven’t already.

Getting ready for the show—Leading Design is back!
Regular people, this morning: “Oh hey, today’s date is an interesting format!”
Me, eleven years ago: “Now if I time this just right…”
Reading About Time: A History of Civilization in Twelve Clocks by David Rooney.
Yup, I’ve got both Twitter and Instagram icons on my phone’s home screen that are bookmarks for the websites (Instagram is “missing” advertisements in its web version …keep it to yourself 🤫).
