WORKSHOP IDEATION With Charlie Mulholland

Yesterday he had another amazing workshop about Ideation. Now that we have done so much research, we need to start focus our ideas and knowledge.

Psychosis is a very complex subject and thinking about solutions to help people in a post-psychotic phase is very challenging. In Charlie’s workshops we do a lot of brainstorming. This time we all draw how we see the problem individually and then we combine them for a full overview of the problem. Based on that we start thinking about solutions that could be a solution for the problem.

For now, and after talking to game specialists we decided to narrow our concept, and we prefer to focus on very simple solutions to response to a simple individual need. We also did a selection of our target group and that help us to build some user stories. We found out that some behaviors were a pattern. So we start brainstorming about stress, anxiety, mental training and cognitive tasks. At the same time we also want to connect people and help them to be social.

See you!
