Yeah, today I had this feeling. Lovely actually! First lesson was a bit boring about social technologies. It was given by Erik and it was about that humans are social beings and that we in our project should try to work this in, in our project.
But OK, the lecture of Björn was one of the most fun ones that I had, because it gave the most answers to the questions I had like: "how the hell do we shape our artefact?". It wasn’t really a lecture (like most of the lectures here), it was dmore a rundown of how to shape your projects to full and working products and how you are able in the design proces to fake and test with non working prototypes. The lecture was conveniently cold: “From cardboard to real life”.
He gave us some hints and tips about how to fake things and ideas just for showing to a jury or some kind. Told us about different kind of materials their pros and cons. He showed lot’s of his cardboard mock-ups together with some of his final products. You really had the feeling that anything “goes” as long as it purposes it function. Actually a bit like we used to be kids and play with a carton box, the one day it was a car, the other day it was a boat in which we sailed the seven seas.
