In this workshop, we will combine the concepts of sustainability, play, and experiments in living to design unique interaction experiences with digital media and technologies. By utilizing playful design principles, we will together create unique challenges for each other. We will learn how to design challenges that are feasible, insightful, and joyful.
The focus of the challenges is to identify an unsustainable practice or pattern in one’s everyday life and to design strategies to help steer behaviour towards a more sustainable direction. About a week after the workshop, we’ll have a voluntary follow-up online meeting to reflect on what impact the challenges had on our lives.

- 12:15 Introduction
- 12:40 How to design a playful experience
- 12:50 Coffee break
- 13:00 Designing a playful experiment in sustainable living: Hands-on work in pairs or small groups to create playful challenges for each other
