Di8it has partnered with Beepurple – the business services of the University of Brighton – to launch a Brighton based User Experience Society.

 
The Use8 society aims to bring together students, professionals, academics and industry that are interested in the User Experience design discipline.

This relatively new field has its root in the HCI discipline but it draws from a wide range of other disciplines that include: cognitive psychology, behavioral science, anthropological studies, ergonomics, product design, psychology and marketing. Almost any discipline, that must consider the user or human per¬spective, is applicable.

The society establishes a rich knowledge commons through organising events that bridges the gaps between these communities and disciplines. Creating opportunities for the exchange of ideas, collaboration and innovation is what use8 is all about.
