  • What is it about?

    Lutz: As creators and designers we are incredible powerful, what is more true than ever for interface design. Because we are defining the rules and possibilities of communication and interaction for today's society. Let's see what that could mean for us.

  • What will the visitors get from it?

    Lutz: You get the chance for reflection of the roles and responsibilites we all have in our daily jobs. You also get inspiration about ethics, happiness and changing the world. Also you may take away some arguments, why to not do just everything your clients / bosses say.

  • For whom it is?

    Lutz: Everybody who is designing and who doesn't want to only care about paying his/her bills.

  • What do I presently work at?

    Lutz: Taking the role of a UX Manager in a large UCD website relaunch project.

  • Which of my existing achievements do I value the most?

    Lutz: Hard to say, never looked back to value my achievements. But if you want one: I'm quite proud about my highscore for Tetris on the Gameboy.

  • What would I like to achieve?

    Lutz: Changing the world so that there is more happiness with everyone.

  • What do I look forward to at the WebExpo?

    Lutz: Meeting the czech web community and learn to know a lot of great people. And let's see, if someone is actually interested in a discourse about ethics and power.
