UX killed the Visual Star – Abstraction, Empowerment and Subjectivity

with Fritz von Runte

Why Designers need to be involved in product development from the beginning? How abstraction can help designers design again? And the change that UX methodologies can make in the company’s culture, by defining roles and processes to reduce frustration and power plays in the Design world.
