Brian J. O'Keefe Ph.D.
Interaction Designer
I am a specialized Interaction Designer, UX Researcher and Multimedia Artist at the Centre for Interaction Design, Edinburgh Napier University, UK. I have been working for a €12 million EU-funded Framework 6 Project entitled "COMPANIONS." My responsibilities have been to analyze usability paradigms and design the aesthetic front end of a conversational interface that learns about the user, to invoke a shift from day-to-day interactions to lifelong relationships with digital systems and devices.
