DAAPX 2023
DAAP X 2023 was held on Friday, March 3rd at DAAP. Attendees joined both in person and virtually from across the country. For those who missed the event or want to experience a particular presentation again, all have been recorded.
The Topic: Experiential Design
As designers and artists, we recognize that all our work is created for and influences or impacts people. Back in the fall, we accepted proposals for presentations to tell a story about a project that was designed with the experience for an individual or group of people in mind – Public art installation? Product design? Environmental graphics? We wanted ‘em all! This is your opportunity to see select presentations that are centered on the human experience.

About DAAPX
DAAPX is a celebration of alumni accomplishments and a Ted-talk style showcase of diverse projects representing all DAAP majors and degrees. Developed in 2018, the DAAP Alumni Council wanted to create a platform for alumni to share a pivotal project in their careers to fellow alumni, faculty, students and the creative community.
Each year, alumni submit proposals on experiential design and the power the creative fields have to impact the human experience. Each quick 10-minute presentation gives a glimpse of a project from start to finish leaving the audience inspired.
