Why wearable tech will change content design Smart glasses and wearable devices have been \u201cjust around the corner\u201d for years. But quietly, that\u2019s starting to change. In this episode, I speak with Carly Gray, a content designer who\u2019s spent years working on AR and wearable products, including smart glasses at North and Meta. While much of the industry debates AI and screens, Carly has been designing content for products where there\u2019s little or no screen at all. We talk about what changes when content moves off phones and into the physical world, why wearables raise entirely new design and ethical challenges, and what content designers need to start learning now if they want to stay relevant as new platforms emerge. What we talked about: \u2705 How Carly moved from technical writing into content design for AR and smart glasses \u2705 Why smart glasses are different from VR, and why wearability matters more than novelty \u2705 Designing content with extreme space constraints (or no screen at all) \u2705 Using sound, voice, and companion apps to communicate when text isn\u2019t an option \u2705 Why \u201cdesigning for the bystander\u201d is as important as designing for the user \u2705 What wearable tech reveals about the future skill set of content designers \u2705 Why conversation design and systems thinking matter more in emerging platforms Where to find Carly: Website: carlygray.ca LinkedIn: Carly Gray Twitter: @carlygray  ","author_name":"Writers of Silicon Valley","author_url":"http:\/\/www.writersofsiliconvalley.com","html":"
