miLife
Grad Design Studio II started off with a bang: the formal (although it's been an open secret for weeks) announcement that we're doing a project with a little company called Microsoft this semester. It's one big project for the whole semester, revolving around a MS initiative called miLife (not to be confused with Apple's iLife suite). Apparently, although we're going to find out more on Wednesday during a conference call with 'the client," it involves Microsoft wanting to move into more non-office (and non-Office-) spaces. miLife is about "Realizing the benefits of the personal computer through hardware and software integration." Whatever that means.On Wednesday, we'll find out who is on our in-house team, which is important because you are stuck with them for the whole semester. The team will work through a version of Alan Cooper's design process towards a final product, which MS may or may not go forward with. Should be interesting.
