=** CCT333 Tutorial #5 Wiki Questions: Bodystorming **=

=== As part of 'Experience Prototyping', bodystorming has been developed as a method of enquiry for interactive design. Research the definition of 'bodystorming', and write three paragraphs describing its characteristics. (3 paragraphs) ===

 "Bodystorming" refers to using creative, physical techniques to create an interactive design. It creates a situation regarding their unfinished, on-going process of ideas and designs to help designers generate new and unexpected ideas, by physically experiencing those ideas.

 It is usually done by a small group of designers rather than alone. It serves like an 'experiment' for the designers for their methods and hypothesis. Like the scientists experiment their hypothesis with scientific tools, the designers use the creative artifacts and physical interaction (i.e. a small drama) to test their ideas and come up with the possible feedbacks, problems, and solutions.

 Unlike the brainstorming, bodystorming would let you actually experience the situations where the design might be needed and use; helps prototyping the ideas in more realistic and concrete; and helps them to think like a customers, instead of thinking only as the designers.

=== On this section of the tutorial, include both names for marking. Use a pen and paper to develop your use-case theater scenario as a mind map of the coffee culture for commuters, and a diagram of your redesigned coffee cup. You can scan and upload this diagram to your wikispace tutorial page as part of your answer. (25 minutes, 2 names, 4 paragraphs, one diagram) ===
