WORKING METHOD · OBSERVE / MAKE / REFLECT

Research interests are tested through working projects.

  1. 01Observe

    Observe the context

    Identify the people, tasks, environment, constraints, and practical needs around a question.

  2. 02Make

    Build a prototype

    Organize technology, interaction, and narrative into a version that can run, demonstrate, and be tested.

  3. 03Reflect

    Test and revisit

    Use tests, feedback, logs, and discarded directions to revise the question and method.
