Icograda Endorses GET IT LOUDER
A visual noise made by young talented designers and artists around the globe. The exhibition is conceived as a platform for showcasing creativity and personal thoughts, in order to explore their sources of inspirations in their daily lives. It also tends to examine graphic art/design as lifestyles, living attitudes, and as an integral part of urban culture.

Six Degrees of Freedom: Defining User-Experience Spaces
By Aaron Marcus, Aaron Marcus and Associates, Inc., Berkeley, California, USA,
Ask three people in our profession to define "user experience" and you will get at least four answers. Why is the concept so hard to pin down? If we could agree on the dimensions that underlie user experiences we could do a better job of planning, analyzing, designing, implementing, evaluating, and documenting them. Turning the abstraction of user experience into something more specific would help us ask the right questions and communicate better with key stakeholders by making user experience more understandable to them.
