Senior Lead Designer at IBM

Christopher Noessel is Senior Lead Designer for the embedded agent, an AI within the IBM Watson Customer Experience team. Christopher teaches, speaks about, and evangelizes design internationally. His spidey-sense goes off semi-randomly, leading him to speak about things from interactive narrative to ethnographic user research, interaction design to generative randomness, and designing for the future.

He is co-author of "Make It So: Interaction Design Lessons from Science Fiction" (Rosenfeld Media, 2012), co-author of "About Face: The Essentials of Interaction Design." 4th Edition (Wiley, 2015), keeper of the blog scifiinterfaces.com, and author of "Designing Agentive Technology: AI That Works for People" (Rosenfeld Media, 2017).
