Hidde’s upcoming schedule

IAAP EU: Web Accessibility Directive, 5th anniversary

Accessibility conformance evaluations: some love them, some hate them. For most of us, from government to private sector, they are an essential part of how we understand accessibility. When done well, they can make monitoring easier, and help product teams fix accessibility problems faster. In this presentation, we’ll look at different ways to do better evaluations, including tips you can apply today and possible future changes to the W3C’s (non-normative) Website Accessibility Conformance Evaluation Methodology.

Hello Stavanger

Computers are great. But should we put them in charge of creativity? Can they push boundaries, take moral stances, move audiences or turn personal experiences into works of art that resonate? In his talk, Hidde will make the case for making and enjoying art, in all its shapes and forms. We’ll explore what makes art special, to understand better what it means to delegate its creation to computers.

The tech sector has an elephant in the room: we use too much energy. In 2024, the World Bank estimated the internet to account for 1-4% of global greenhouse emissions, similar to aviation. The good news is: there are documented and measurable opportunities to improve. From code to infrastructure. In this talk, we’ll look at best practices from the W3C’s new Web Sustainability Guidelines and beyond, focusing on lessons you can apply today.
