For this week, we tackled challenges in communication and split into separate teams for the project to work efficiently. We also synthesised research and staged interactions.

We organised the data from literature in a table to make it easier to understand what everyone did. We consolidated this further into key points.

Affinity Mapping - Synthesis of Research
Affinity Mapping - Synthesis of Research
By collectively reviewing AEIOU, Directed Storytelling, and Affinity Mapping, we produced sticky notes and grouped them to make common themes. As half the team was unavailable, it might have produced some gaps in our synthesis as we didn't get their inputs.
At this stage, we decided to split into separate groups for the project based on work times that worked best for us. This allowed us to explore ideas more rapidly with reduced friction.

Testing and staging interactions
Testing and staging interactions
Through the areas of the building identified last week, we quickly staged interactions through the back windows of Bold. This allowed us to understand colour visibility, scale, and the limitations of the approach.
Although it was easy and interactive to conduct from inside the windows, we felt it wasn't "outside" and too two-dimensional.

Bold had a bowler hat and cane, which we used to improvise characters on the spot. It made us realise how the same props were interpreted as different characters. The experience was fun, engaging, and dynamic.

This week allowed us to prototype and test low-fidelity ideas very quickly. Splitting into completely separate groups made communication and coordination effective. Being physically present at Bold and ideating felt effective and let us also think about the space simultaneously, which we decided to continue for next week.
