Outline

In this lab you will:

  1. reflect on the goals you set for your artefact or performance design
  2. discuss your artefact with instructors in its current state
  3. explore and potentially implement some variations to your project

Introduction

Welcome back creative coders! It’s another week of working on your project. As we mentioned last week, the class will turn into a studio space where you come along and work on your project and seek feedback on your work. As a consequence, there will be less structured material in the lab web pages from now on.

If you haven’t already, Fork and Clone the template repo for your project. We are using the same template repo for both the prototype and the final project and this will be the only template you’ll be working from for the rest of the course.

Blog post 7

This section isn’t really part of the lab. It’s here for you to reference as you put together your blog post submission for this week. You’ll remember in your last blog post, you discussed your interpretation of the theme identity 2.0. You also discussed your goals for the user experience or performance you will design. Finally, you discussed how you will communicate your interpretation of the theme to the audience.

This week we want you to reflect on the current state of your prototype and discuss your progress in relation to the goals you set for the user experience design or performance design.

What you will need to discuss in your blog post

  • discuss what you have been working on since the last blog post
  • discuss whether your goals for user experience design or performance design have changed
  • reflect on how your progress has moved you closer to acheiving your user experience or performance goal
  • discuss any research you did or inspiration you sourced over the last two weeks and how it influenced your work
  • discuss whether you explored any alternative implementations of an idea. How did you experiment and create variation?
  • what do you plan to work on in the coming two weeks and how will it help you either a) effectively express your interpretation of the theme b) achieve your user experience design or performance design goals.

What kind of media to include in your blog post

  • a screenshot or screen recording of the current stage of your project
  • any images or links to inspiration you sourced
  • if you have any screenshots or screen recordings of variations you made or experiments you conducted to your project (which are not reflected in the current state of your project), you can include those too

Summary

Congratulations! In this lab you:

  1. reflected on the goals you set for your artefact or performance in blog 6
  2. discussed your artefact with instructors in its current state
  3. explored and potentially implement some variations to your project
