Event Description
Calgary UX is excited to welcome Randall Herd, Vice President of Marketing at Arkhet, for an in-person workshop. Bring your laptop and prototype with us! There is no shortage of jargon these days, and it can often feel like text prompts are being applied to everything. The rush to develop new solutions can distract us from focusing on what truly matters. Join us as we explore a groundbreaking approach to software ideation and prototyping, one that doesn't rely on traditional text prompts or pixel-pushing and avoids automating human creativity. We will begin with a brief overview of “tools” versus “products,” then dive into a practical UX challenge. Whether you’re creating your first prototype or experimenting with new ideas, we'll discuss fresh perspectives and what's possible in 2026 and beyond. Participants can “bring their own” UX challenge or use the provided one. As this is a hands-on session, participants will require a computer, power, and internet access. Ideally, the space can be configured for tables/desks for easy workshopping, a la sprint/hackathon. Participants will receive a 95% discount on an annual membership care of Arkhet. (This will be provided at the session, not as an incentive for attending.) This session is designed for participants of all experience levels. Come as you are and bring your ideas!
