The UX Mastery team were in sunny Brisbane last week for the excellent UX Australia 2012 conference. We had a blast and returned home feeling better educated, inspired, and connected.
We’ll write more about what we learned at the conference in a separate post, but in the meantime I thought I’d publish the sketchnotes of twelve of the sessions that I attended. Unfortunately, because the conference contained two tracks, I wasn’t able to attend every session (I’m devastated that I missed Stephen Cox’s talk in particular, as I’m told it was amazing). I’m looking forward to the audio and slides from each presentation being published online in a few weeks.
Here’s the set of all twelve sketchnotes:
The Power of Why?
I Love Clients
Oh, The Humanity!
How I Became Authentically Digital
Graffiti, Drugs & Rock ‘n’ Roll
21.5 Ways To Win Friends And Influence People
Memento Mori: Remember Your Mortality
Teaching Developers How To Design
Designing Interactions For Big Data
Designing for Cognitive Disabilities
The Rise of the Design-smart City
Sources of Innovation
A huge thank you to Donna and Steve, the dynamic duo behind UX Australia. The conference really was well organised and a lot of fun, and I was honoured to be asked to present my What the @#$% is UX Design? presentation on stage before the closing keynote. I had some lovely feedback afterwards, which was great!
My talk is available online if you weren’t at the conference, or just want to relive it! A big thank you to all the people who made so many encouraging comments (either in-person or via email/Twitter).

Thanks for a great presentation Matt, it was fabulous to see such an innovative way of presenting information, there are so many possibilities for this it is very exciting.
You’re welcome Meaghan—thanks for the kind words!
It was great to see these sketchnotes as they were being drawn and thanks for sharing the 2 days worth of talks, makes me want to start drawing…
Also, excellent presentation on Friday, a great way to engage everyone in the room and share your UX view.
Thanks Roslyn, great to meet you in Brisbane and thanks for the positive feedback on the presentation. It was fun! :)
