Recently, Canonical's thought-leader and CEO Mark Shuttleworth posted to
the ubuntu-devel a very nice email that you should read. You can find it
here:
http://fridge.ubuntu.com/2013/01/04/going-mobile-in-2013/

You should read the whole thing, it's not long. But most directly speaking
to your interests, he wrote
"Now is the time to roll up our sleeves and *create*. Think of an app or
system feature that you think is really important to have, apply what we’ve
learned about design thinking and your own imagination to find elegant,
new, fresh ways to deliver that capability, and join us in shaping
something that can take the world by storm. Start at
developer.ubuntu.comand unleash your creativity, rigour and
expertise."

I suggest that you pick an app, think of a way that the app could be
better, and start a discussion about it. You can take a screen shot of the
app and doodle over it with your favorite paint program (Photoshop, The
GIMP, Inkscape, etc) or mock-up a whole new window.

Give us your ideas and questions, and we'll help you refine them and
present them for inclusion in the project.

Since there's so much interest in getting started with Ubuntu Artwork,
maybe we should have a meeting on IRC to introduce ourselves, some Free
Software tools for making Ubuntu Art, and ideas for getting involved.

If you'd be interested in attending an IRC meeting, feel free to post hours
you'd be available and what time zone you're in so we can coordinate.
