Ux Wave
(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2025-07-24) Borda, Sebastian; Manrique, Frank; Rojas, Oscar; Acuña, Alejandro
UX Wave is an interactive and transmedia design magazine whose main objective is to disseminate both academic and relevant articles. The idea for developing this magazine arose in collaboration with the program's improvement plan, which primarily focused on having a product to showcase or further publicize the program and what better way to simultaneously keep students informed of design trends and events both within the school and externally. For the first edition of the magazine, a methodology was applied that combined qualitative, design, and design approaches. We used references, for example, for the brand manual, conducted testing and analysis of previous data, and, as part of the research, analyzed similar magazines and digital media. Based on the above, and as a result of the objectives set at the beginning of the project, we generated a first version of the magazine, which applied different tools learned in the program and broadened the understanding of design as a communicative discipline. The result is the publication of a journal for both academic and professional contexts, with the potential to continue growing and transform into a permanent space for reflection and analysis on UX.

The project advanced through theoretical research, prototyping, and user testing across three academic semesters. It was showcased at both national and international academic events, including the Design Schools Forum at Universidad de Palermo and RAD Colombia 2023, where it received recognition for its ethical, social, and technological contributions. The report emphasizes the integration of design and social responsibility, highlighting the use of Unity, Blender, and Photoshop in the creation of a virtual environment that empowers collective awareness and cultural transformation.
Patas en Acción: Elaboración de Estrategia de Diseño de Interacción Comunitaria para Promover el Bienestar Animal
(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2025-07-22) Martínez Roldán, Vanesa Alejandra; Acuña Najar, Jose Alejandro; Universidad Santo Tomás
This degree project falls within the field of Interaction Design with a social and community focus, and aims to understand and intervene in the sociocultural dynamics surrounding canine and feline sterilization processes, as well as animal health in urban contexts. Based on a case study of the Patas Arriba Mobile Veterinary Unit in the city of Tunja (Boyacá, Colombia) and some pet owners in the Santa Inés and Libertador neighborhoods, a community-centered design strategy is proposed to strengthen animal welfare and facilitate access to clear and timely information regarding the health of their pets. The project is based on a research approach using qualitative methods and participatory design tools, integrating aspects such as animal welfare, public health, the construction of the subject living in society, and the user experience in community contexts. As a result, an interface for an intuitive mobile application is developed, which acts as a bridge between veterinary knowledge, community actions, and the daily needs of animal guardians. This tool seeks not only to improve the experience, but also to activate processes of appropriation and co-responsibility in animal care at the social level. From the framework of Interaction Design, the project contributes to the reflection on how both digital and analog designed experiences can respond to an ethical, social, and dynamic perspective. In this approach, the user experience is not conceived as an isolated interaction, but as part of a network of collective practices, relationships of trust, and generational exchanges. Whether through a mobile application or direct interaction at animal welfare conferences, the aim is to generate a meaningful, coherent, and functional experience that promotes active participation and commitment to animal welfare as a shared social value. Keywords Interaction design, animal welfare, user experience, community, sterilization, public health, participation.

Práctica empresarial - Pesquera del mar
(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2025-06-06) Ramírez Alvarado, Natalia; Acuña Najar, Jose Alejandro; Universidad Santo Tomas
This report talks about my internship at the company Pesquera del Mar, concerning the areas of design and digital communication, focused on the user experience (UX) and the production of multimedia content. I participated in these activities while freeing up time to get involved in other initiatives, all of which improved the company's online presence and the organization and usability of the site. A large part of my role was to create audiovisual content, particularly recipe videos to post on social networks. These contents not only advertised the brand's products, but also managed to resonate emotionally with users with useful and entertaining content appropriate to the company's visual identity. I was in the recording, editing and post-production of the videos so that they could be published in the required format for the various media (Instagram, Facebook, TikTok). I prepared assignments analyzing the website and e-commerce platform, finding elements to improve the way content is organized, visual hierarchy, consistency in product display and navigation flow. I presented observations and suggestions on how they can improve from a usability and UX design standpoint by restructuring their information architecture, product descriptions and visually complementary elements for the user.
