Design Ideation and Prototyping for Interactive Footwear: A Report on the Foot-Wearables Design Workshop

This paper presents the process, output, and outcomes of a workshop on interactive foot-wearables. The first half of the workshop was largely devoted toward creativity through an enactive model of group play. In the second half participants joined together to form production groups with subgroups to maximize the expertise and skillsets of the participants. The result was a rich set of concepts and the deep development of a functional prototype.
