BURNING MAN LARP
What did I learn from this experience?
I need to choose FOR PEOPLE what characters I want them to play, or else the entire thing won’t play out like I want it to. It’s going to depend on the person. I need more ideas for short skits/to let things play out I was hoping this would enlighten me as to new ways to bring people together. It’s meaningless unless I do it a second time (which I never did)
Notes/Meetings for WIP Thesis Show, 11/28/17
Next Door - joined three neighborhoods with very different demographics. They don’t have an official API but I’ve been working with a coder.
Always ask yourself, from now on, next steps, what does this thing advance? What is the major agenda that I’m focusing on? Review does not equal show. It’s not the same expectation. Two different things. What are the key outcomes? What have you learned so far? What’s the hierarchy of outcomes that you’re going to focus on? That doesn’t mean you need to stop any of the threads that you’re working on. Play them out til the end of this term. But for this review, what have you learned from these inquiries, and what outcomes will you privilege in order to move on to the next phase of this project. I posted on FB, hey who uses Next Door? Most people use it for local gossip… “well if that’s the case, then own that. How do you represent those voices?” I’m interested in activating communities and bringing people together … for the purpose of breaking down barriers, practicing resilience. One dimension is tools for neighbors to take control of their neighborhood and practice resilience and promote local knowledge. another thread is different modalities that can bring people together - audit
Next Door is another platform I’ve been working on, using it as a medium/interface to see how people connect. What are the things that you’re gonna focus on? Those are the meta takeaways from these three main things. But what are you going to move forward with? What I’m interested in creating digital tools to activate spaces… How does this fit back into co-creation, participatory design, coming back to where you started, collective experiences - is that civility? is that being polite? is it major civic issues like lack of policing? Posing those challenges in your work. Strategies for co-design. How do those things fit in? Maybe that’ll help you decide what dimension of a project you really want to push forward?
WALK TO END EPILEPSY, 2018
Here is an example of a large organization trying to host an event in which people get together for a common cause. I have entered contests for the Epilepsy Foundation. I’ve been going to this event for years. And can I just say, it leaves a lot to be desired from a process standpoint. The kids had NOTHING to do. There was no alcohol whatsoever. Everything was so unorganized, and yet it brought thousands of people. Parts of it were great, don’t get me wrong, but from a whole systems standpoint, how we’re getting people together to exchange information - it left a lot to be desired.
Next Door / SPEED RADAR
Using Next Door as a research tool, I began to find patterns. One thing common to all neighborhoods was people speeding through the neighborhood, especially here in Glendale. As a way of “LEVERAGING THE INFORMATION ON NEXT DOOR AND EXTRAPOLATING IT IN SUCH A WAY THAT I CAN USE MY TECHNOLOGY SKILLS TO MAKE SOMETHING AND INSERT IT BACK INTO NEXT DOOR” I created a speed radar device using a raspberry pi, open cv, and a camera module.
This is the python script and directions that I started with:

TAXONOMY OF MICRO-MOMENTS
TAXONOMY OF MICRO-MOMENTS
What are ALL THE DIFFERENT WAYS THAT PEOPLE CAN GET TOGETHER? This can be anything - from a car accident to a workshop and everything in between. One of my on-going projects this semester is a taxonomy of micro-moments. I split them up into categories: are the interactions physical or virtual? voluntary or involuntary? planned or unplanned? My hope is that I will periodically add to this and eventually put it online where it can live and grow as an open-source document.
WEEK 5 DEPLOYMENT This project asks pedestrians walking by a particular prompt. I’m curious to see how many people will stop and interact. The outputs here are specific because they have geographical location in common.
