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,…)

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…)
