We would like to invite you to participate in an online workshop that explores physical-digital devices and data through a form of thing-centred design.

Thing-centred design is an emerging practice in design, HCI, and other related fields. This workshop aims to use methods inspired by co-design to explore, provoke, and speculate on the limits and potential alternate avenues for data and physical-digital devices from a thing-centred perspective. It delves into the outputs of ongoing research in these topics as a means of obtaining expert perspectives on the work.

This aims to be a fun and engaging session that will make you think and may lead you to new ideas in your own work/research. It will involve the discussion, critique, and presentation of, ideas, the conceptualisation of new products/objects and scenarios of use, and an introduction into a particular form of thing-centred design.

It is also a great opportunity to meet and network with like-minded practitioners of design, HCI, HDI, IoT, and similar areas. Plus you will receive an Amazon gift voucher!

Please note, prior knowledge of thing-centred design is not required to participate.

Participant Requirements:

  • Must be 18 or over
  • Must be a professional/academic/researcher in the field of design, HCI, HDI, IoT, or related field
  • Access to Microsoft Teams (no account required)
  • Access to Miro (free account recommended)
