2015/05/16,18 [GDWS WS A Medium]Re-Designing ICTs 01
This is one of workshops in the category A Medium by the Global Design Workshop (GDWS), GCL.
Recently, it has became clear that ICTs can survive in the society with some proper cultural programs such as customs, learning, plays, workshops, and so on. Developing ICTs with designing cultural programs which embrace ICTs will be needed for Social ICT.
Professor Mikko Villi and Shin Mizukoshi and their international members have been working on a bilateral research project, “Co-Design of Digital Storytelling System with Geographic Information”, and developing several ICT systems with cultural programs.
In this workshop, first, participants will understand how to use a SoftGIS, one of their ICTs. Second, try to interpret it with different social demands and make blue pictures of alternative design with cultural programs.
Participants will work on it mainly on Saturday May 16, and Monday May 18 will be a showing and discussion.
