Engaging with the IoT Sandbox - Designing with Systemic Openness

ABSTRACT This studio revolves around designing with systemic openness and introduces the IoT Sandbox as a tool to design with systemic openness through multi-activity and multi-person scenarios. The studio knows three learning goals: (1) how to characterize and facilitate a design challenge with systemic openness, (2) how to design with multi-activity and multi-person scenarios, and (3) how to design for diverse interaction styles in a systems context. In a hands-on manner the fundamental concepts and challenges are introduced and experienced through a series of short design sprints. The studio ends with a reflective discussion on the propositions created by the participants, in relation to the learning goals as well as the studio and the IoT Sandbox platform.
