_i asked_
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- how to convey the structure of a complex system in an accessible way?
|
||
|
|
- how to offer entry points for people not familiar with such a system?
|
||
|
|
- what could it be a familiar metaphor?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
_i did_
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- figured out the structure of the system: found out that is a circular process
|
||
|
|
- researched for metaphors: lifecycles, environmental cycles, water cycles
|
||
|
|
- focused on images targetting kids like elementary school aesthethic, paint-it-yourself drawings, etc. in order to have a really really really accessible metaphor
|
||
|
|
- that this is something that should be done during the research! not months later ah ah

|
_i found_
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- that using an image let you be more precise and less scared of being precise
|
||
|
|
- that this process can happen in different moments ! aha
