  <title><![CDATA[GVU Center Brown Bag: Astrid Bin, "Designing for Exploration: Using Inefficiency As An Approach"]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p><strong>Abstract:</strong></p>

<p>The benefits of efficiency and usability in design are well-documented. However, when designing interfaces and experiences for exploration, learning, artistic content, or contexts where there is no task (or when the &quot;task&quot; is emergent), the trajectory is unclear and a task-based approach becomes inappropriate. This talk discusses designing for exploration, and how inefficiency as a design approach can be used to think about and create experiences for creative, narrative, and learning applications.</p>

<p><strong>Speaker Bio:</strong></p>
