Real Utopias
Friday, April 6th, 2012
- One-week Interaction Design Workshop at the Arts Academy of Split, Croatia.
Oliver, Pekko and Christina followed the invitation to host a workshop employing game mechanics to develop critical design tools for real utopias.
During the workshop the team developed a myriad of micro games employing various perspectives of game design.
We collectively mapped utopian ideas, went for a shit hunt, challenged conventions inside a local supermarket, had our perspectives shifted and foci modified. Our brains were thoroughly blend playing with prototypes of our our week-long workshop.
- Challenging Conventions – 3 Micro Games in the local supermarket
One of the modifying devices to help gain new perspectives
This is BrainBlender, a tool and game in one, to collectively develop unconventional ideas
