You/Me/Us: Collaboration, Storytelling, & Technology

Workshop, Chaos at the Musuem, Buenos Aires, Argentina

Contemporary technologies promise a move from a one-way broadcast to collective storytelling, and yet many of our interactions with technology are isolating and non-collaborative. At Local Projects, we design technology for museums and public spaces that enables participation, storytelling, and social interaction.

This workshop examined the methodology behind Local Projects’ award-winning work. Participants undertook a series of exercises that the studio uses early in a project to identify opportunities, define strategies, and develop concepts. The workshop finished with a survey of both lo-fi and high-tech tools that might be used to prototype such ideas.

    LA INDUSTRIA AUDIENCE EL PUBLICO CULTURE & TECHNOLOGY CULTURA Y TECNOLOGIA Massive opportunity to support learning outside of the classroom. Grandes oportunidades de fomentar aprender fuera de la sala de clases. Learning is an interactive process of analyzing, questioning, and discussing. Aprender es un proceso interactivo de análisis, cuestionamiento y discusión. Children spend 4 times more time with digital content than at school. Los niños están expuestos a contenidos digitales cuatro veces mas que en la escuela. Connecting lessons to the real world increases learning. Lecciones que involucran el mundo real aumentan el nivel de aprendizaje.
  12. Trends & Opportunities Tendencias y Oportunidades INSTITUTION LA INSTITUCION INDUSTRY

    LA INDUSTRIA AUDIENCE EL PUBLICO CULTURE & TECHNOLOGY CULTURA Y TECNOLOGIA Start with what already exists (buildings, staff, infrastructure). Partamos por la infraestructura existente (Edificios, el personal, etc.) Quality public events are transforming civic institutions. Eventos públicos de calidad están transformando las instituciones públicas. People form collective identities around passions and interests. La gente forma identidades colectivas alrededor de sus pasiones e intereses. ‘Open-source’ and ‘sharing economy’ models have impacted numerous industries. Los modelos de “código abierto” y de “consumo colaborativo” han impactado muchas industrias.
