Background Research

Books, documentaries, magazine articles, Design projects,... » What is energy? How has it developed? » Finding favourite sub-thematics

Context Research

Context observation Defining Design elements Recombination Recontextualisation Evaluation I II III IV V Part One Interviews, discussions Surveys I II Part Two

slide-7

I - Context observation

» How do people use energy? » Where and when? » Explore artefact qualities

slide-8
SLIDE 8

People & habits

slide-9
SLIDE 9

Objects and their qualities

slide-10

Mystic energies

slide-13
SLIDE 13

Electricity hazards & safety

slide-14

II - Design elements

Metaphorics, Functionality, Materials, Aesthetics, Form, Wear, Radiation, E. current » What properties do these elements offer? » How can these elements be designed?

slide-15
SLIDE 15

III - Recombination

» Recombine artefact properties » Make object function/intention unpredictable » Change functionality (eg. from problem solving to problem creating...)

slide-16
SLIDE 16

IV - Recontextualization

» Change object’s context » Shift usage scenarios intentionally » See how users react

slide-17
SLIDE 17

V - Evaluate

» User discussions » Draw conclusions » Produce ideas, refine direction

Early concept definition I

Electrical Phenomena Exploration Toolkit » Different tools to explore different kind of immaterials » EMF, electric current, energy leaks,... » Create an experienceable chance to feel and see electricity

slide-21
SLIDE 21

Early concept definition II

Inefficient apparati for the home » misbehaving electric utensils » exaggertate inefficiency/loss of energy » make people aware of loss of energy through inefficiency
