Alex started well and had some good ideas. He made an excellent point that providing a good user interface builds trust immediately. However ... (a) his presentation did not bear much resemblance to the description on the Midcamp website, (b) he seemed to have a lot of technical difficulty progressing through his slides, (c) his pace was a bit slow and as a result he couldn't cover all his material, and (d) the focus seemed a bit unclear. Was this supposed to be an introduction to the concept and purpose of refining the user interface? If so, he made that point well. But in terms of giving people concrete ways to do so, there was very little substance.
This presentation was good overall and gave me a few ideas for future projects. Alex did a good job getting started, but seemed to get off track a bit. I'm not sure if he had too much for the time allowed or perhaps had a technical issue with the slides. However, my biggest concern is the color scheme he chose. Light gray on white was pretty hard for me to read and I honestly ended up with a mild headache before the end of the session. I would suggest Alex change the color scheme to one with better contrast.
