World Information Architecture Day 2016

World IA Day is a one-day, annual celebration focused on the practice and education of Information Architecture. Our celebration brings together a diverse community including information architects, user experience designers, content strategists, product managers, developers, scholars, and students. We come together to talk about and shape the future of Information Architecture.

Presented at the South African WIAD event at the University of Johannesburg on the topic “IA Entropy” – a concept which I define as “The gradual decline into disorder of the structural design of shared information environments”.
