Arup

So now Im back…

The last 7 weeks I have been in London working together with the Arup Foresight team with one of their projects called Faraday. The project is about how Science can be taught in the British schools in key stage 3-4 and the end product is a building proposal for two new Brittish schools that is being built this year. Together we have developed concepts and end product specification in six different categories ranging from how robotics can be used in educations and what and where to buy the products to how to display the history of the school and use that information in education. A very broad range of interactives which we in the end managed to break down in deliverable format for a constructor to use.

The last seven weeks have also given me a good insight at how interaction design can be used and are being used currently at top projects like the Water cube for the 2008 Olympics and in 3d simulation for visualizing projects.

Now it is time to play catch up until all the workshops which we are going to be organizing. Really looking forward to both the Malmö festivalen things for kids and the evening Lighthouse and the professional workshops to teach arduino and other physcial prototyping tools.
