Refresh Bellingham October 20, 2010

Refresh is a community of designers and developers working to refresh the creative, technical, and professional culture of New Media endeavors in Bellingham. Promoting design, technology, usability, and standards, Refresh Bellingham is part of the Refreshing Cities movement.

Refresh Bellingham is proud to host Nishant Kothary. Nishant will be discussing the process of how designing software always reveals our humanness—our biases and prejudices, quiet agendas, irrational actions, and diverse portfolio of imperfections—in full effect. The Elephant in the Room zooms into the web design process, drawing insights from fields like behavioral economics and evolutionary psychology to explore how embracing politics and understanding human nature makes our designs better, our projects smoother and our lives happier.
