August de los Reyes, User Experience Director for Microsoft Surface, will be in Melbourne on Tuesday, September 23, before keynoting Web Directions in Sydney. August is a great speaker, and a really nice guy too and has kindly agreed to speak at CHISIG that evening.

August will be speaking about designing for emotion and how it applies to his work with Surface. I'm a little bit excited about this talk!
