Final speaker announcement! Drum roll..... 🥁

Last but not least, Richard Aragon will be presenting at this year’s World IA Day LA, and we are so happy to have him!

Richard develops experimental AI frameworks, autonomous agent systems, and applied commercial platforms that operate in real-world environments. His research spans topics such as persistent machine memory, adaptive learning structures, information geometry, and the relationship between perception and meaning. He is also the founder of multiple AI initiatives and product ecosystems, where he leads the design of intelligent systems used in marketing, decision support, and human-machine interaction, with an emphasis on systems that not only process data but participate in dynamic environments and evolve over time.

Here’s a brief description of Richard’s talk:

The Architecture of Understanding
From sorting rocks to navigating airports to the systems powering AI — we’ve always organized information to make sense of the world. This talk traces that instinct from everyday life to formal practice, showing where structure helps us, where its absence causes chaos, and why the same principles now underpin the technologies we’re building. A foundation for the day ahead.

This is just one of the many amazing talks and activities that will happen this Saturday, March 7 at the ArtCenter College of Design.

Speaker announcement #3! Drum roll..... 🥁

WIADLA 2026 is excited to have Justyna Berzowska as a speaker at this year’s conference!

Justyna is a Product Content Designer & UX Strategist with over 10 years experience with web and app projects - in the higher ed, telecomm, digital agencies and civic spaces. In addition to working deeply with content, she also specializes in information architecture, research & discovery, as well as guideline and process improvement projects. She’s curious, practical and collaborative.

Here’s a brief description of Justyna’s talk:

Making Meaning: A Call for Slow Ethical Design
It seems like there’s never enough time to get everything done. But how can we deliver value when we don’t take the time to understand the problem before we start solving it? This talk makes the case for slow ethical design, with examples from healthcare and agency work. We’ll look at how we can be more intentional in our work and what it takes to solve problems with people at their core.

This is just one of the many amazing talks and activities that will happen this Saturday, March 7 at the Art Center College of Design.

peaker announcement #2! Drum roll..... 🥁

WIADLA 2026 is happy to announce that Wesley Chou will be speaking at this year’s conference! Join us, as he explores three real projects with three different approaches to organizing collections. From strict hierarchies to loose tagging systems, Wesley will illustrate how taxonomy decisions shape the way people explore experiences and why structure should serve the user, not the other way around.

Wesley is a partner and creative director at Folder Studio, an LA-based design studio he co-founded in 2013. The studio builds visual identities, publications, and websites for cultural and commercial clients — including LACMA, the Hammer Museum, Canadian Centre for Architecture, and MIT. Much of their work involves making sense of large collections and archives, designing systems that let people explore and discover.
