SydJS: Developing Ideas

Two talks on making interfaces feel human, from Alex Reardon's UI insights to web audio exploration, plus SydJS's reliably friendly dev crowd.

Alex Reardon's back with fresh thinking on making interfaces feel alive, this time paired with Leo Caseiro exploring how web audio and text-to-speech humanise digital products. You'll get practical insights into interaction design and accessibility through audio, grounded in real examples from people actually building at scale. SydJS meetups tend to draw experienced frontend developers and designers who show up for the talks but stay for the conversation, so it's a solid room if you're looking to workshop ideas or find people working on similar problems. The vibe is casual and thoughtful rather than pitch-heavy.
