Today we started to design the #hubfutures wall. This space, based on a comment by Neil in a previous session, is a physical space where thoughts about the future of Hub will be posted.
Yesterday, we ran in to Ella from tincan who recommended us to check out artist Candy Chang's website for inspiration. Cindy's work combines installation art with social activism, and aims to encourage people to engage with public spaces to let their voices be heard.
That sounds a bit like what we want to do.
So far, the #hubfutures wall includes functions for:
- Clustering scan hits according to a modified PESTEL framework with colour coded themes (culture/values, technology, business/economy, art, sociopolitics, environment and others).
- Reactions, insights, comments and feedback
- Action
- Peer-to-peer learning facilitation (through stickers where people can post according to an "Ask me more about this" template)
- Plot of scan hits on a time line
We'll continue the work on the wall next week.
I really like the opportunity to do physical stuff with knowledge, not just digital stuff. Thanks for providing a place that facilitates that.
ReplyDeleteI'm not often at the Hub, so the downside is, that if I not physically present,its more difficult to participate and see what has been placed. Maybe we need a live feed camera for the latter. :-)
