Workshop with Nicole Aleong on futures anthropology today was so good. Never realised how dynamic and complicated a train platform is as a space before. (Was also in a group with Steph Troeth who is very cool.) #ResearchByTheSea
A group of people gathered around a table, engaged in a collaborative workshop. They are looking at sticky notes and papers with focused expressions. A facilitator stands in the background, observing the discussion.
Two participants in a workshop are seated at a table, engaged in a one-to-one discussion. A large presentation screen in the background displays the words "Get to know each other" along with a diagram. Other attendees are visible in the background.
A woman wearing glasses and a patterned black and white dress stands, while two seated participants at a table focus on their work. One person leans on their hand, appearing deep in thought.
Three people engaged in an active discussion over a table with papers and sticky notes. One woman holds a few sheets of paper while explaining something to the others, who are leaning in attentively.
Thank you to everyone who joined us for today's workshops on day 2 of #ResearchbytheSea.
Our own Luke Hay explored how to Make an Impact with Quantitative UX this morning & Nicole Aleong guided us through Futures Anthropology as a Method: Applying Futures Orientations to UX Research this afternoon.
What a day. My head is spinning from the ideas, insights and visions shared at #ResearchByTheSea (on and off-stage) — @clearleft.com and @benjamin.parry.is thank you for having me!

A diverse audience in a theatre listens attentively, some smiling and nodding in engagement. A woman in the centre, wearing a white top, rests her chin on her hand while watching the stage.
A man wearing glasses and a dark jacket smiles while holding up an orange lifebuoy prop branded with "UX Research by the Sea" and the hashtag #ResearchByTheSea. A woman in a white t-shirt sits behind him, also smiling. The background features a brick wall with framed historical posters.
As the tide goes out on @uxlondon.bsky.social #ResearchbytheSea, we wanted to thank all of our incredible speakers for sharing their insights, our partner Voxpopme for their support, the always-on Clearleft team for all of their hard work, as well as the entire team at the Brighton Dome...

had a great day at #ResearchByTheSea today, really interesting mix of talks, from birds, everyday resistance to holistic accessibility. it’s given me lots to think about and lots of inspiration. we can’t be limited by narrow scopes as people cannot simply ‘descope their lives.’
Gotta be honest, #ResearchByTheSea is one of the best conferences I’ve been to in yeeeeeears. So many good, useful, inspiring, thoughtful, provocative talks. Much more about ethics and power and possibility than I’d expected.
Loved it. Thank you, @clearleft.com!
We hope everyone's having a great time at UX London’s #ResearchByTheSea.
dxw’s Steph Troeth held a session earlier today on approaches in speculative fiction that can help ground the thinking of researchers and designers.

Possibly the best line up of speakers I’ve ever been lucky enough to enjoy #researchbythesea no pressure @cennydd.com ☺️
Attending #researchbythesea how lovely!
The last 2 weeks have made it abundantly clear that people, culture and the planet should be at the top of our priority list. Join our ten empathic, future(s)-focused speakers and workshop facilitators at #ResearchByTheSea to find out how.

Why Michael?
I’ve written why @uxmichaelco.bsky.social is perfect for speaking at the #ResearchByTheSea conference in Feb. Michael is presenting his new talk – The Spirit of Bartleby: In defence of refusal, I can’t wait!
