My name is Alisa Goikhman. I am a UX designer and design researcher. My work focuses mainly on users, and sometimes on machines.
I explore the meeting point of Human-Computer Interaction, language, and Cognitive Science, with a special interest in tangible and embodied interaction.
I currently work as head of design in Field 33, building a navigation system for complexity I used to work at the Future Center Europe where I investigate the future of mobility, trying to come up with just and sustainable solutions for our near future.
I was a researcher at The Austrian Centre for Digital Humanities (ACDH) and collaborated with the University of Salamanca. I teach Experience Design at the University of Europe for Applied Sciences and did it at Weißensee Kunsthochschule Berlin, Bezalel Academy, and the Interaction Lab at Holon Institute of Technology as well.
I received my MA from the Berlin University of the Arts and BA from the visual communications dept. at the Bezalel Academy of Art and Design in Jerusalem.
