 # EvolveUX
 
+EvolveUX is a fast structured feedback protocol for user experience designers to constructively critique each others' work. The feedback helps them improve their designs, and get them ready for a follow-up feedback session.

+
+## Background
+
+EvolveUX is the 4th iteration of a feedback protocol for makers/designers, where multiple elements have stabilized. Prior to EvolveUx we experimented with the ExposeUX series at OVH, the ProtoHack series at Salon 1981 (the local ImpactHub), and the UX Feedback sessions at Notman House. (all had feedback forms, an emcee, etc.)
+
+## Interaction Protocol or API
+
+Today's segment-by-segment protocol consists of 3 stages:
+
+- **the hashtag #** - what is it that just happened
+- **the heart ❤** - what is there to appreciate about what just happened
+- **the delta Δ** - what to consider improving
+
+This repeats several times in the evening depending on how many people attending have artifacts to present.
+
+Send an MR to tweak the protocol.
+
+## Install
+
+The minimal requirements: 
+- 2+ people or systems need to interact,
+- a scheduled time, and
+- a place (can be online)
+
+## Usage
+
+1. Share an artifact and declare the specific type of feedback you need
+2. Engage the attendees to evaluate your presentation in #❤Δ format.
