Midjourney

Music Streaming Concept

In my free time, I’m becoming more skilled at various AI tools that we can apply within the UX/UI industry.

Here I used Chat GPT to come up with the opposite of these trending songs, and Midjourney to form the artists images. For example, “The Fake Slim” from Eminem, instead of the Real Slim Shady.

Agile is the way forward

I apply the double diamond technique to all my UX design sprints. I believe that research and testing are key in delivering a successful project for the user. From quick, hand drawn sketches to MVP prototypes, my process involves developing the best solution to identified pain points through an iterative approach.

These are some of the tools I love to use.
