mutation

Social practice project undergoing mutation.

After brief but productive team meeting Friday, decided to meld game idea and the clockface concept. Result at present: DesignFlu. My tentative take on the concept is roughly this:
  • a bad design flu bug is out there
  • you don't want to have it
  • there is a countervirus, say, DesignBooster
  • you get this countervirus by going to our site/signing up on a clipboard in hall
  • logon to site, post name.location.date/time.who infected you (if anyone)
  • post one or more "design health" tips (best practices advice)
  • spread to as many people as possible (social network sites useful)

result (reciprocity):
  • amassed tips and wisdom from fellow designers
  • being on the SAFE list.
  • awesome immunization badge
