lots of framing before ever hearing WHAT OOUX IS... let's see... where is the timestamp where she defines OOUX differentiation? (you know, what would have been nice to hear up front) .. here it is at 21:36. .... have you all met Jeff Patton? He's been talking about this for years and introduced story mapping to accomplish the same thing. ... getting nouns right... DDD called that ubiquitous language decades ago. (your desc is perhaps more relatable 🙂)

Is this some sort of commercial for the use of illegal substances 😂? Or is it ADHD ? Did you watched the clip after? 😂😂😂

What diagram software are you using? that looks very neat

Object Mapping, Story Mapping, Journey mapping, etc etc.. where is the pros and cons table for these methods? Sometimes I think there are so many methods, we create slight variations thinking it's new. What's wrong with detailing data via a UML diagram or annotating low fidelity wireframes or paper prototypes? What I am uncertain about is whether OOUX is actually a good step forward or just a different flavour of existing methods and not better at all. Also, another question: does a strong design system enable OOUX?

why don't use UML patterns to help visualize "objects" how they are?

I find this system very confusing and time consuming. You can sketch a concept is minutes and just write the requirements next to the sketch... an that way everybody will understand. Seems to me that this is working back ways.

Yes! Agree! The modal makes it hard to reference the non repeated details. I wonder if putting the details behind an accordion (in a list) would be better 🤔 It would also make it easier to compare plans

Wow this one made me laugh...so tricky to find to find the product detail page.

You bring up so many good points!

Yeah super sneaky and annoying! Reminds me of companies that make us jump through multiple hoops to unsubscribe from email subscriptions! In Australia pretty sure that's illegal, but some still do it.

Your OOUX is mind blowing. I'm a developer primarily who's looking into UX because I want to develop some personal projects and OOUX thinking actually helps me a lot in development as well. It is difficult to articulate. Are there any resources I can access which talk about the steps that were not a part of OOUX Udemy course? Books? Links? Videos on this channel? I'd love to learn in detail about OOUX. I've just found this channel, I'll eventually get to it as well once I finish the course completely.

So helpful!

This is interesting! Glad I found your channel! I think I have intuitively done some of this before wireframing

didn't understand a thing

Great video. One recommendation is to avoid using "1-many" as a range in the blue stickies. "1-many" has such a ubiquitous and specific use to describe a relationship that it could cause confusion used in this context. In this context the "has n" where n is a numerical range is describing the relationship. So it may be more clear to say "has 1 or more Employees..." Its like you are using two different grammars. For example, the relationship between a baked good and an allergen could be described as a "many-many relationship", that is 1 baked good to 0 or multiple allergens OR one allergen to many baked goods. or you describe the relationship in OO terms by saying "has 0 or more allergens"

To address the ambiguity between plans and projects there is a great organizational framework by Tiago Forte refered to by the acronym P.A.R.A.. Maybe you know it already. If not: PARA differentiates between projects (the "P") which are containers of tasks and items that lead to a tangible goal, ideally attached to a deadline, while areas of responsibility (you guessed it, the "A") comprise buckets of tasks and things that cannot be exhausted and require recurring attention. I would love to hear what you think about it. Thank you so much for your inspiring content. OOUX brinsg so much clarity into my design process.

I have found how powerfull the Notion tool is thanks to your video! Thank you very much :)

Haha lovely!!! And this was so long ago I’ve moved twice!

Fascinating approach, and always interesting to have a nosy around someone's house 😉

I love this. It helps me to understand how to better leverage content and channels in my marketing for more impact. Give it up for growth loops!

on a OOUX binge

Loved Luke's use of the Square Matrix to identify relationships or perceptions between characters (and of course the self-perceptions of a character) with the time element included (before, events impacting, after). Great tool for looking for missing relationships or new relationships.

This detail might have gone right over my head, but why are the worksheets shown at around 47:55 depicting a card? Is the idea that whatever feature you're working in has to be able to fit in a card model? Or was the worksheet customized/specific to a card feature that the author was working on? Or is that a general "object map" worksheet?

Fantastic presentation Mandi! This was a great breakdown and Its been incredible to see you advocate for and integrate OOUX principles into our workshops at Autodesk. Keep up the awesome work!

FYI, the background noise from your computer isn't that bad...I didn't really noticed it. :)

If i want to redesign one of my pages on the site say the product detail page, is it possible to use OOUX just for this one page?

Great video, thanks! Would you always recommend an object to have its own detail page? What if I have a complex component with its own functionality, metadata and CTA'a that only appears on 1 page, should this still be classed as core content? Thanks.

I'm still wondering if price and icon belong to the yellow sticky....are they not content? I can see how you may filter and item by price...but what if there is no need to filter by price as in this example.🤔 maybe at some point the content and metadata would just merge together as OOUX matures?

Thanks Sophia, can you do a quick explainer on you side note system modelling diagrams?

Thanks so much!

The sticky note is generally a contextual representation for the concept of the encoding of a subjective expression of a "thing" or "idea" and then appending or affixing that encoded thought artifact to a greater "thing" (corkboard, database, side of a fridge)

Went to Sofia on a whim a few years back. Every country and culture has beauty, but some are underappreciated. Really enjoyed my "UX journey" as a random traveler in Sofia.

The OCRA process! 😃

Very inspiring! I work with very complex systems that use a lot of nested objects and inheritances, and I can see things more clearly with this approach, and it helps my colleagues understand this complexity. I am very sold on this idea of thinking in objects, and everything I see makes sense, and my mental model for solving problems is very similar. Now I am thinking that studying content design may help me solve my problems more efficiently. Do you, Sophia or Karen, even try to use semi-automated ways to plan these maps, or is the process not quick/complex enough to require something like that?

How do you import the tasks from a checklist into Notion so that you have the due date for the task. When I imported, the cards include a simple checklist but no dates.

thank you very much, I'm excited to check out the Udemy course and find out more about OOUX, this sounds revolutionary and awesome!

Excited!

Always wanted to take your course but couldn't ever afford it so I'm super excited for this!

Congratulations Sophia. This is going to be exponential. ❤

I came across OOUX only today. Very interesting topic, as I am deeply interested in different design methodologies. One thing to note: you often refer to developers working in an object-oriented way. Interestingly, in development world, a big topic is object-oriented programming vs functional programming. In the OOUX terminology these would be the nouns vs verbs. And many senior developers and complex projects actually migrate toward functional programming paradigms. Obviously, this is a complex technical topic that cannot be explained here. But it's interesting that while OOUX suggests moving from verbs to nouns in design, the devs are actually trying to move from nouns to verbs :-) This doesn't mean these OO design cannot live with functional programming actually, it's just an interesting contradiction in mental models and it's good to be aware of it.

Very useful, thank you!

Going through the SPMC right now, great stuff! As for shorts: share some UX fails! That's always entertaining.

I love your eyes sweetheart

Am digging the bite sized practicals.

50 sec descriptions of the various oouxy things?

A practical refresher! Thanks, Sophia!

👍🙂

Welcome

Nice 👍

Keep up the good work! I came from the newsletter to let you know that I'm watching and supporting 🤗 My favorite videos are the audits from OOUX perspective ❤
