UX Magazine | User experience is everything.™ Ideation + Design | Writings on Digital Product Strategy & Design. Experience Maps. February 24th, 2010 An interesting depiction of user experience has surfaced the other week over at the nForm blog in the form of an experience map.

Gene and his team has come up with a way to represent gaming related experiences of three distinct gamers. In a way then this is a merger between a persona and a time based representation. The other interesting thing about this is the visualization and separation of at least three types of experiences: ongoing, exploratory and influenced. Each type of experience has been shown in a standardized and specific way. Furthermore, the diagram also captures and represents a variety of channels which the personas are utilizing at a given point in time. Overall, it’s always interesting to see when designers attempt to convey such comprehensive and unified high level deliverables.
