Listen "133 — How can experience design tap into our emotions?"
Episode Synopsis
Think of an experience that triggered such an emotional reaction that your behaviour was permanently changed. Such experiences often happen by accident, but they can also be designed. This week on the GoodPractice Podcast, Ross G is joined by Owen and PA Consulting's Kenny Temowo to discuss experience design in detail, and ask whether it can be scaled to reach larger audiences. If you'd like to share your thoughts on the show, you can find us on Twitter @RossGarnerGP, @OwenFerguson and @K_Temowo.

S - Setting (Where will you set the experience?) H - Humour (Can you disarm, without harming?) I - Interaction (Can you focus on the interaction, rather than tech?) F - Frame (How will you frame the experience?) T - Task (What will the challenges be during the experience?) The paper Owen discussed was: Morehead, K., Dunlosky, J., & Rawson, K. A. (2019).
