Metadesign For Murph, and How To Organise Your Library

Last Friday, I spoke at the final dConstruct conference in Brighton. dConstruct is a legendary conference, it was an honour to be invited to talk, and as a result I’ve spent most of the summer pulling together the ideas behind the talk. As a speaker, you’re meant to be ‘oh yes, all the talks I do are equally good’ and all that, but that felt like the best talk I’ve ever done. In a rubbish sporting metaphor, I left everything out there on the pitch, Brian…

The audio has been recorded, and I’ll share that/mix it with slides soon, but in the meantime I’ve written an annotated version for you to read:

Also, with the follow-up questions people asked about the ‘library’ part of the talk in particular (and creating a systems view of the world you work in), I’ve written a Medium piece on ‘How To Organise Your Library‘.

It’s a Tolkienesque appendix, perhaps – there’s no real need to read it to get the point of the story, but you might find something interesting or useful in there.
Anyway, thanks to the gang at Clearleft for the opportunity to grace the dConstruct stage, thanks to my fellow speakers who set my brain fizzing with new things, and thanks most of all to the audience, who were very kind about the talk in general and my ‘Russell Crowe as Jor-El‘ impersonation in particular…
