<p>In this episode, we dive deep into the world of UX research and explore the innovative concept of rhizomatic thinking. We'll discuss the limitations of traditional linear UX models and how rhizomatic thinking, inspired by the interconnectedness of nature, can offer a more comprehensive and effective approach.</p><ul><li><strong>Understanding Rhizomatic Thinking:</strong> Discover what rhizomatic thinking is and how it differs from traditional hierarchical structures.</li><li><strong>Beyond Linear Models:</strong> Learn how rhizomatic thinking can help us understand complex user journeys that don't follow a straightforward path.</li><li><strong>Iterative Design and Rhizomes:</strong> Explore how rhizomatic thinking aligns with the iterative nature of UX design, fostering a more adaptive and responsive approach.</li><li><strong>Rhizomatic Thinking Beyond UX:</strong> Discover potential applications of rhizomatic thinking in other fields and the challenges of implementing this approach in a data-driven world.</li></ul><p><strong>(Audio created with Google NotebookLM)</strong></p>

<p>This episode explores the six principles outlined in Italo Calvino’s book, <em>Six Memos for the Next Millennium</em>, and how these principles can be applied to UX design. </p><p>We also discuss the potential benefits and drawbacks of applying these principles. Then we compare the work of Calvino with that of Umberto Eco, showing how both authors influenced postmodernist aesthetics and argued for a new kind of literature that reflects the complexities of the modern world.</p><p></p><p><strong>(Audio created with Google NotebookLM)</strong></p>

<p>The episode explore the application of 13th-century philosopher Thomas Aquinas’s ideas to modern-day UX leadership. One key concept discussed is <strong>motion</strong>, which suggests that change and progress occur when energy or momentum transfers from one entity to another. This is applied to leadership by suggesting that effective leaders transfer their energy and enthusiasm to their teams, inspiring and motivating them towards shared goals. The sources also highlight Aquinas's work in <strong>metaphysics</strong> and <strong>ethics</strong>, which emphasise understanding the underlying nature of things and acting in accordance with universal moral principles. These concepts can be applied to UX research by encouraging user-centricity, collaboration, and ethical data collection practices. The sources also provide information on Alessandro Zulberti, a UX researcher who wrote an article exploring these connections between Aquinas's philosophy and modern-day UX leadership.</p><p></p><p><strong>(Audio created with Google NotebookLM)</strong></p>
