SUMMARY:Interaction Salon: Karen McGrane\, &quot\;From Typing to Swiping:
 Interaction design has come a long way!&quot\;
DESCRIPTION:This fall\, the MFA Interaction Design Department welcomes
 visiting lectures in an intimate lecture series to inspire
 conversation\, pursue change\, and incite creation.  About the
 Event Graphic designers are exposed to the history of their field
 during art school. Fashion designers remix the historical trends
 that seem to recur like clockwork. And it&#039\;s unthinkable
 that a practicing architect wouldn&#039\;t understand the
 historical foundations of their field.   But interaction
 designers\, sadly\, rarely have historical perspective because
 most people working in the field today didn&#039\;t have
 formalized training. As a result\, we don&#039\;t know where the
 principles of how we interact with computers and technology come
 from. How often are we reinventing the wheel? How often are we
 ignoring fundamentals?   In this session\, we&#039\;ll try to
 remedy that. Karen will discuss how human/machine interaction has
 evolved from buttons and switches to icons and from punch cards
 and command line interactions to graphical user interfaces and
 touch technology. Attendees will see videos of early products and
 systems in action\, hear quotes from key thought leaders in the
 field\, and walk away with a better understanding of how our
 discipline developed before we called it &quot\;interaction
 design.&quot\;    About the Speaker   Karen plays nicely in the
 content strategy\, information architecture\, and interaction
 design sandboxes. She is Managing Partner at Bond Art + Science\,
 a UX consultancy she founded in 2006\, and formerly VP and
 National Lead for User Experience at Razorfish. She also teaches
 Design Management in the Interaction Design MFA program at the
 School of Visual Arts.              \n
