H Project

Ma did a mural of the initial interviews done at college and around on streets. SEE MURAL.LY
Total of 17 interviews
Criteria set up
1. (Yellow) Information on People
2. Positive Points
3. Negative Points
4. Solutions

I analysis the survey monkey survey into a post it note template.

We took the Interview 1, 2 and survey 1 data and tried to develop some stakeholder, Value, cause & effect and Solution maps in Mural.ly

Four Authors looking at: (Reading and Analysis there key characteristics)
Otto Neurath
Dan Roam
Alberto Cairo
Dave Sibbet

Produced a literature review document and a comparison of key characteristic document

Ma and me created a sheet holding all our ideas

On Mural/ly Ma created a SWOT analysis of our ideas so that we could vote

Tried Ma work and Gigga Mapping

Using Data from Interviews 1, 2, 3, 4 & 5 and write ups in Teambox. Initial exercise to get data together in a similar form

For the assessment I produced a Visual Plan and a written plan (see photos)

Drew a storyboard of this

From ideas generated I produced two prototype visuals.
1. A cartoon strip
2. A Prototype app

At ma place
We did three business model prototypes and three business proposition statements storys

I did tests on one of the categories

I did visualisation tests on one of the categories

After Assessment decision to use Dan Roam Vivid Thinking Framework instead of Dan Roam Back of the Paper Napkin framework

Sketching and producing two iterations of sketches in digital format

I used it for keeping track of weeks information. I kept a diary and kept photos and presentation on it.

Tested out Agile Methods we used it on Teambox. It feel away after our first presentation. We were introduced to it in our 06/02/13 lecture and in our MDes 04 lecture

This was initially worked well then didn't

Testing out Online Program

The key informant technique (Marshal, 1996)

Emailed Authors for a chance to gain feedback from my visual language experiements

Creating and building two visual picture to show to an industrial expert.
Interesting feedback - Archetypes of Hsharers. Its a people business not just about tools. Leadership style.

At this point we had a massive project and we needed to find a smaller more tangible one.

After our Presentation we needed to change and find something tangible and smaller. Mis came up with a great idea.

Insight was that quantitative information was not going to help. However the qualitative information was useful.

After tutorial as I was directed towards:
1. Developing own visual language - Otto Neurath, Alberto Cairo
2. Language
3. Format (Grammer RULES)
For my design research. Need a consistent narrative. It is important how you collect information.

From my notes I can see I was not sure how to set up a theme for the narrative

I gave up with this technique as only one author replied and he unfortunately could not do it until the Summer

Decided from tutorial to change plan from creating wireframes to just producing prototype visuals to test

It has been a journey trying to identify visual language and how it is about people. We are always trying to work out a tool or an object to solve the situation. Try using more of the theories in terms of leadership.Using Proposition Statements for buidling prototypes.
TURN the contract UP

I have found her work to be very helpful for bringing all the design parts together. I have used her methods to design my next presentation

I need to create a learning map for the final project report

After initially looking at the cultural aspects of sharing. One would need to investigate this perspective more in the future.
This after remembering that I did some of this initially in February

Still not decided on our specific audience yet. We could still use this http://visual.ly/what-kind-housemate-are-you

Just looking at the different categories it seems to me that we are not testing enough

It hard to keep using multiple online systems. Google docs, Mural.ly and Teambox. For our team it did not quite happen with it

After presentation need to create a testing strategy

From the presentation and assessment a use could be used for this.

We did not do well here. Our project was too big and lacked direction

I could not attend as I was away

It was a brainstorming session (see week 1 google photos)

We had Lecture & tutorial session

Lecture & Tutorial - Useful Tutorial to focus on last few weeks of prototyping and testing

Scoping and discussing the main BIG problem and users. Discussing our roles

Idea to develop this into a Pitch for Business. Discussed developing a plan
We will look to create a provisional segmentation:
- students aged 18 to 24
- young professionals aged 25 to 30

- older professionals aged 31 to 50

Scoping each others projects
Ma - How do we communicate clearly our business model?
R - How do we get different people with different habits to use this?
What are the best habits individuals need to make a h work?

END Goal in 15 week period is have a Good Quality Business Pitch with User research

Another goal is for business to be about creating a hassle free h per person

G Meet
Debrief from tutorials
Looked at cultural differences and discussed different language to use.

Meet up in Old Street Cafe
Discussed Perspectives and Values

Discussed user and leads

Google Chat

Only me and Mi. Discussed prototyping and direction towards cle side.

At ma place
We did three business model prototypes and three business proposition statements storys
