Using comic book art to enrich design scenarios

Published by Amit Pande at 8:26 pm under Books, User Experience, Design, India

I recently caught Kevin Cheng’s interesting interview on communicating concepts with comics. Kevin is a Senior Interaction Designer at Yahoo and has been using comics as a technique to bring forth the richness of design scenarios.
Reading this interview, i wondered - Can Indian comics be used to develop richer scenarios for designing more relevant technology products for Indian markets? Could all those Amar Chitra Katha and Indrajal Comic readings indeed be of help in understanding how say, a migrant rural population might adopt touchscreen computers?

    hey amit,
    have u seen recent comics by raj comics and virgin comics.. they are quite costly but the story quality, images and page quality are superb .. atleast better than most of the western comics.
