SXSW 2020

Undesign Comics

Description:

On Twitter and Medium, many amazing UX professionals showcase truly remarkable practices for broader consumption. However, a smaller group of extremely loud UXers bring negative criticism over any design or opinion.

Undesign Comics is born out of the necessity of placing a mirror in front of this subset in the community. These comics are a child-like lens of everything associated with the term ‘design’-colors, art, craft, fun, exploration, shiny, fancy, messy! Undesign Comics is also an active result of our reflections as UX professionals. As we are learning and practicing the craft, many of our comics are a result of our current deficiencies. Almost as important, Undesign Comics is a side-project bringing together UX professionals with common goals of unwinding, laughing, and learning.
