Pictures Thursday Presentation

Here you find the pictures of the presentation that I, and the ones who used my camera, took. I didn’t set the shutter speed right it seemed, so some movements are blurred. Apologies for that! There will be more pictures available on the KISDphoto page soon from someone else. (under ‘Services’ at the top)

A5 factsheet

I printed the factsheet in 120gr in the C-lab, maybe it’s interesting for the other groups. 🙂

Presentation time reduced, THU and beyond

The Friday AG just informed all presenting groups that the time is limited to 20 minutes per group. This is extremely short! So maybe we open our doors for interested students after the presentation for another 30mins in the afternoon before you rebuild everything in room 240?

We will have a feedback meeting on TUE 11 at 3PM for about 1.5 hrs. We will critically reflect and talk about the project, the process, our outcome, about next steps. And the documentation.

Once you finished the documentation we will have a final meeting – most likely at the very end of March. Long way to go – but just to give you a perspective.

Final days and steps

To do for Tuesday / Wednesday

Today: Update and fix your user stories. Remember – the user story has the purpose to communicate a dedicated “use” (and user experience) of your concept, the system and products you designed. No single step in the user story should be a commonplace, always tell what is special and important was the user experiences your concept and design.

Think of the requirement to make your concept and food “tangible”.

Tuesday: All bring your 2 posters (or more if you have more, the second poster shows additional material to make your concepts accessible) as paper printout, A3 or a stitched together A1 based on A3 to get a sense of the proportions. If you are a team, it is ok when only one of you joins the meeting, the other(s) can proceed working.

You have to print out your two posters in the CLAB that Tuesday in the afternoon before it closes for the KISD talk. So start printing around 3.3o latest

Look at your small A5 cards and look especially at the data. You remember, that one of the criteria of your work was and is ” to provide (useful, necessary, feasible and digestible) data and information about food/ingredients and farming products, make intelligent use of information and information technology”. So now as your idea of the concepts are fixed (due to time), please once again make up your mind and let us know which data is used and necessary to make your idea working – and which data is created for your concept and through its use. I have the feeling that you still take too much to be obvious…but it isn´t. mention it! Detailed, so if you write “Crop data of farmers” let us know which, if you write “Season products in Germany” write what that means etc.

All have your exhibition element built up and fixed so that we can arrange all of the single elements in space.

All have your artefacts and/or screens/digital prototypes ready to show and share.

What all of you are sharing are prototypes. Prototypes are used in the iterations of a design process to articulate assumptions or insights and to inform the design process and support reflection and critical inquiry. They are not used to sell your product. In general, be very aware if your prototypes and visualisations are designed for a schematic understanding (like a wireframe or function drawing etc.) or if it is a prototyping to be looked at formal questions (formal design parameters like colors, forms, proportions, sizes, movements, dialogues). This is a big difference, I gave comments on that to all of you today. All the works should come up with a design articulation / artefact / prototype that shows your ability to work with basic formal design parameters (like mentioned above).

Wednesday: 3 PM all have their exhibition contributions ready and we can all together walk around and have a short presentation of each group of 3-5 minutes (share the core ideas of your concept, guide us through your poster, share what is the most important aspect in your concept etc. to start a dialogue and q&a with your audience.

We are in the final phase and please dedicate all possible time now to make things happen! If there is anything unclear, let me know, if you need more feedback and help I am also around tomorrow afternoon!

Monday

We will meet around 10am in R240. I kindly ask all of you to get your (needed) part(s) of the exhibition system in the basement (R58) and bring it to 240 so that we can see how exactly the individual elements will look like and how they can be put together to get a coherent spatial experience and maybe create connections. Pleae also all bring your posters in 2 A3 printouts (if necessary each side in 2 A3 landscape so that things are better readable). We will fix the post and give last feedback to the user stories, I think there needs to be done some work…

I have a meeting early outside of KISD and hope to be there by 10, but sou should all be there! See you!

Updated Poster Template + Factsheet

Find the folders here. So I’ve been putting your content into the new poster template and the A5 factsheet. Now, I gave myself quite a challenge to try and put it in for you, aiming to maintain a unified form/feeling. 😉 Along the way, I have played around with your text, got out typo’s and changed things when I thought it didn’t make too much sense. I will give the template back to you now and you can add in your final user story and tweak the text accordingly. Look at the poster from the others and try to write some more if you are lacking text (Yasmine) and try to reduce when you have too much (Matea). For Maxime and Samia, I couldn’t get your body text in because it is vectorized, so please have a look and change that. For some, writing a precise and easy to read text is challenging, but words are important. Reread it a few times and ask peers whether what you have written makes sense! I don’t want any typo’s in the final presentation. 😀

The backside of the Poster, or your second poster, can be used freely with imagery and system map if you decide to show that.

For the factsheets, find yours in the template folder and tweak it if you want to.

Kalia, I didn’t make your one as you didn’t post any poster but you can do that yourself when adding an extra page in Indesign, it gives you the ‘A-Master’ that you can access by clicking on the objects while holding shift and command.

Tomorrow, we can print the posters out in A3 to test it. The final posters can be printed on Tuesday on prof. Heidkamp’s budget! But only if they’re ready on Tuesday.

A domani!

Food is increasingly getting on the agenda of design and designers. And there is need for new approaches!

In this international project, we will research and analyse structures and processes related to food production, distribution and consumption in (future) cities (Cologne/Taipei).

We will develop possibilities of future approaches, especially in the context of increasing digitization (AI, IoT, blockchain, traceability, bait to plate, farm to fork) – and question them critically.

How can we design a different relation to food, its ingredients and values, its production and culture, its habits and processes?
How can we create new relations and values to ingredients of food?
How can we connect (us to) different stakeholders, especially to build relations between farmer/producer and consumer.

A part of the project team – max. 6 students – will be able to work in Taipei for a week in November, supported by students from SCID Taipei and the project group in Cologne. Details will be clarified in the first project meeting.

In Cologne, we work together with local experts and stakeholders.

At the end of the semester, both the analysis and drafts / prototypes will be presented.

In the project we refer to the UN Sustainable Development Goals, in particular to SDG 11 and 12. Due to the topic, it might be possible to submit the results to the Cumulus Green Award (and I will encourage and support you to do so).

We will approach the project by questions we want to explore. In the beginning, we will have the opportunity to find a huge variety of questions and then discuss them – amongst us and with others . in order to find out the most relevant ones. Relevant in terms of the need to approach them and relevant to approach them from the perspective of design.

Pre-meeting: if you have questions or want to make sure that you are really in the project – or want to influence the character of the project even before it started please try to join our pre-meeting on Thursday September 26 at 12.30

First official meeting: This is mandatory for all that want to join – it will be on Tuesday October 22 at 10.00. In this meeting I want to see what your specific interest in this project is – so please subscribe to this space, contribute with some relevant questions and maybe cases as well…

Regular meetings: The regular meetings are always on Tuesday at 10.00. As I mentioned due to some travel activities we won’t meet every Tuesday, but there will be weeks where we meet twice or longer during the Tuesday meeting. There is a GoogleDoc with all our meetings (always updated). If you are not available we can arrange to connect via zoom – but always let me know before.

Taiwan trip: the workshop in Taiwan is scheduled for November 18-23. The core group not traveling to Taipei will proceed meeting here and we will remotely collaborate via our KISDspace and zoom (see above).

We can learn a lot from existing cases and studies. Here we are collecting relevant cases how digitalisation influences and affects food farming, production, distribution and consumption. How farmers/producers are connected to consumers, the rural to the urban.

Cases are structured around 3 core questions: What it is, Where it is and Why it is relevant. In addition, cases have tags / keywords to made them more accessible and findable. It would be great to use the comment function about the use of cases to create additional information

Here we will collect interesting experts: individuals, organisations or initiatives who are doing something we consider valuable in the context of the project. They can be (preferrably) from the area Cologne or Taipei with the purpose to meet them for an interview, invite them for a talk or a workshop, or to go for a visit or a field trip.

This is the page where we share our digital communication – in this case video messages between Cologne and Taipei to figure out what’s the best way to keep in touch. And for live connections please use https://zoom.us/j/5505005500

UPDATE (2): Six groups, six assignments in the Taiwan workshop

After our intense collaboration work today I was suggesting 6 domains and assignments for the Taipei workshop week. I spent this morning to make them easier accessible for the students joining the workshop – as they don´t know about our process and and context. So I hope this reads more easy now, that everybody can imagine possible directions and outcomes for the end of the week – and I am sure you will all find the questions you had (and the stuff you were interested in)…and now we also have a consistency and it is clearer that the outcome will be scenarios based on specific places in the city (or around), on specific (food) products, on a specific us of data and information (technology), and on specific people or communities.

We will do it! And see you on Sunday and stay connected via spaces!

Team 1 Future Consumption
Designing scenarios for a new eating out experience (food stall / pop-up / restaurant / farm to plate …) in a specific location with a specific type of food.

Context: In the future, the concepts of restaurants will proceed to change. How can we re-think our understanding and concept of “restaurant”? Where – in the neighborhood – would such a place be? What would be the experience, depending on a very specific type of food they are offering? What type of specific (food) products would be available? How will it connect (to) consumer/citizen and farmer? Which information is relevant for the food, for the cultivation process, which communities might emerge? What do people (need to) know about the food they eat? Are restaurants embedded in (specific) communities?
Team: Maxime,

Team 2 Future Distribution / Retail
Designing scenarios for a specific market / retail (food / agriculture market / pop-up store) experience in a specific location and a specific type of food.

Context: Designing a new market / retail experience to meet emerging customer´s needs.
Where will those places be? What are best places and why? Who will be the customers? What will be “sold”? How will this match new shopping behaviors you see emerging? Which information is available about the products and how will people use this information, get in touch with it? What is the new experience? How can we address very specific cultural acceptances?
Team: Matea, Florian

Team 3 Future Distribution / Sharing
Designing scenarios for a new food sharing experience in urban space creating communities of practice using hybrid platforms (including three specific places).

Context: How can we learn from cases like food banks all over the world and avoid that food to good to be wasted will reach new people / customers? How can we design this setting to make it accessible? Where and how in Public space can this happen? How will it be organized that people accept it, like it and maybe even build communities around it?
Team: Jeldrik

Team 4 Future Farming / Agro-Communities
Designing scenarios for new types of Agro-Communities in / around Taipei

Context: Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) as a success model in Taipei and what are opportunities, activities and challenges when implementing new technologies emerge? How to connect citizen and farmer, what is the benefit for them? How can the process of farming be monitored? Which data are / might be available? How are digital media used to strengthen communities? How to build and strengthen communities, which communities emerge? How and what to share and work together?
Team: Clara

Team 6 Future Farming / Relationships
Designing scenarios for interaction with / accessing information about food and ingredients to establish new (food) values and (key stakeholder) relationships.

Context: What kind of data would be valuable from the different perspectives (consumers, farmers / producers) and how can sharing this data influence their relationship and bring new values to food? According to the different types of data, how can future technologies be applied to carry this information, which interface could this imply and what could this mean for food “packaging”?
Team: Anna Luz,

Team 6 Future Food: New Products
Designing scenarios at a specific place to present and experience relevant information as a “food exhibition” by appropriate means and (hybrid) media

Context: What are typical Taiwanese agricultural products (define three!), how can we analyse it and use available data to both inform customers and come to new use of all possible byproducts? How can value be created, how can customers get a new attitude to a product through this knowledge? This includes every possible step in tracing back the growth and processing of the product. Designing the information layers of a food product and emerging opportunities based on this knowledge
Team: Sarah, Helena

Draft Workshop Taipei

Please have alook at this workshop draft for the Taipei week. It is relevant for all of us:

For the six students leaving as we will have six teams in Taipei and each of the KISDstudents will be in one of the teams supporting the process, sharing insights we achieved – and nudging the team in a direction that is of help for our overall project goal (and maybe each KISD teammmebers individual goal and project). So it might make sense to take this into consideration when working on your topics.

For the seven students staying in Cologne it is relevant as you will be ably to benefit from the work done in Taiwan – and help through contributing with existing research and preparation you have done up to now. You will recognize possible connections I built to the questions you developed (I hope).

So this is a part of the draft I am currently developing with David:

DRAFT SCID-KISD workshop Future Cities: Food

< Introduction>

In the workshop, you will build six teams working on three main topics:

Designing a new restaurant experience in Taipei (CONSUME)
Where would such a restaurant be? What type of specific products would be available? How will it connect to citizen and farmer? Which information is relevant for the food, for the cultivation process, which communities might emerge? Which stakeholders are involved?

Street stall / pop-up
Restaurant / farm to plate

2. Designing a new market / retail experience to meet emerging customer´s needs (DISTRIBUTE)
Where will it be? What are best places and why? What will be sold? How ill this match new shopping behaviors you see emerging? How do they deal with waste? What will be sold? Which information is available about the products and how will people use this information, get in touch with it? What is the new experience? Which stakeholders are involved?

Food market experience
Pop-up store

3. Designing a concept for new farming activities for emerging urban farming activities (PRODUCE)
How to connect citizen and farmer, what is the benefit for them? Which stakeholders are involved? How can food be monitored? How to build and strengthen communities, which communities emerge? How and what to share and work together?

Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) outside of Taipei
Urban Farming in a specific location in Taipei
