Mini exercise 01

  • Analogue Data Collection 

 

Discussion in groups: From ideation to in-depth concept

  • What drives the design? (example: is it function, speculation or critique)

  • Where could the data come from? (example: wearable sensors)

  • What metaphor could you use?

  • What inspires the form making process (example: fungus, cell division, mathematical geometry,…)

{jb, aa}

15.00 Presentation of research directions
Answer the questions we asked in the groups discussion: 

  • From your design interest/wish, reflect on what drives it: function, critique, curiosity, inspiration..?

  • what is the data you will use and how do you collect it? (analog, sensor…)

  • how will you map it?

  • are you using a metaphor?(biomimicry…)

  • how would you like to fabricate it? (technology used, materials used…)
