EP85 with Prue Jones on gender, sex robots and simulations

This session finds us still at the Adobe Symposium 2018, where we ‘finally’ got the chance to sit down with Prue Jones. She has been on our list since the first episode but for whatever reason we’d never been able to make it work. Well, the wait only heightened our anticipation and Prue did not disappoint.  

Design and Creative Director of Fjord, Prue has over 30 years of experience in the Creative Industries. Starting in advertising she made the move to graphic/digital design and recently began balancing the roles of futurist and gender equality leader. Two topics she’s incredibly passionate about.

As you might imagine, with that backstory, this conversation went all over the place but somehow remained connected to what we, as designers, as people, can do to make things better. We talk sex robots, the singularity, living in a simulation and becoming a spokesperson for female creatives.

Special thanks to Streamtime for their continued support. If you haven’t started using their software… well, you are missing out.

Thank you to Adobe for having us along for the ride and to Jo Roca (freakin’ legend) for stepping in as co-host.
