So you\’re not a designer. So stop trying to pretend to be one.
I invited you today to the presentations because I thought you would like to know what hci is all about. However, I didn\’t appreciate how you tore apart the concepts. What kind of person are you! Why do you need to head in an analysis phase rather than enjoy the designs that all of us presented.
Maybe the Turkish culture advoces such criticism, but I just don\’t like it at all.
One of my favorite groups–the sonic band had this awesome design of strips on the wall for young moderns, their target user group. At this point, I had expected you to be humble and really give leeway for the fact that you don\’t know any hci. But no, you just had to tear the concept apart…saying that you wouldn\’t want strips on your wall. Wait a minute, YOUR wall? This is a design assignment. The mantra of hci is \”The user is not like me!\” I don\’t know why I am so upset over how people don\’t think like hciers. So wait a minute, you suggest that remotes are so much better?
Why do you need to do that? I explain to you exactly why the group pursued that path. I keep it light-hearted and try to tell you to stop tearing apart the groups…but as you go on, I get more and more unhappy. Why do you need so many remotes for music. \”Get 10 remotes?\”
Quite naturally, you don\’t understand anything. Stop blaming it on the fact that you are an engineer. Realistically, you do understand, you just don\’t try.
Maybe right now, I should just tell you to piss off. Why do I hang out with you when I don\’t appreciate your presence? I just don\’t know how to tell people to go away. So I possibly could give you the blunt goodbye message.
\”I am uncomfortable with your presence.\”
And this way, you feel guilty for causing me discomfort. Or better yet, maybe I should write a list and send that to you.
