Last Week, my girlfriend and I were on the 6'O'Clock news playing Collabolla at the V&A! So funny. Ten seconds of fame *Sigh* I will have the footage soon.
Collabolla, the collaborative gaming platform for playing Pac-Man is at the V&A's Touch Me exhibition. Featured alongside work from other designers from Ivrea, MIT, Droog, Karim Rashid.
One of my little dreams has come true! My design work has come home :)
In collaboration with Ruth Kikin-Gil we presented a three house installation of both theses. The design improv method I have developed was used to help the public understand and experience the project Ruth is working on. Called 'Buddy Beads', her project suggests alternative ways for communication among teenagers, ways which emphasize their social structures, behaviors and needs.
You can read more about how we made a participatory experience for the public using improv games here.
It's that time of year again: Milan Design Week. This year I will be showing my thesis work in a rather dramatic fashion.
Look out for our little side show theatre in greenhouses. We'll be at the San Siro Football Stadium in Milan for one night only: 14th April.
Alongside will be Matthew Barney showing his latest film, Arto Lindsay, Jimmy Durham, Luca Vittoni, Domus Picnic, Armin Linke, Alejandro Jodorow, Cao Fei, Yona Freidman.
Collabolla has been exhibited at Next 2004 in Copenhagen. Jennifer Bove went to show the game off, and by all accounts it was a big success!
