Reader Prototyping
-
~ take suggested methods, use something we already used already - work on it,
elaborate, don't exclude what we've been doing with Manetta, Michael and
Cristina
-
~ go in smaller groups/individually and make a prototype - network of texts,
something visual, reworking of something and what it can be a sensible way
to explain to people
-
~ come together at 15:30? and we share what we've done - talk about how can
we stitch it together to make a 'reader'.
Aggregating different things ~ output: chat form
