On Tuesday we had our prototype presentation at the STIHO bouwplein for Bruno and Simone. Simone is the learning and development advisor at STIHO and was therefore interested in what the app can offer towards educational purposes. We showed the first design of the app using the working Axure wire-frames. From discussion after our presentation we realised that we didn’t lay enough emphasis on STIHO’s role. We learnt that we need to focus more on the archive and on the possibility of contacting people from STIHO.
Brian , our developer was at MediaLAB on Friday to show us the first screens he made.
We used the inputs from our presentation at STIHO as suggested changes for our designs which we then conveyed to Brian. With Brian we also discussed the creative common license of the code of the app, technical aspects of implementation of the server, the documentation and annotation of the code.
Apart from STIHO, people from the Studio HvA have shown interest in up-scaling this app after our tenure at the MediaLAB. This afternoon we will speak with Gideon about this plan for further development and discuss in what way our concept can be fruitful. Furthermore we shall discuss how we are going to get an enthusiastic team together. You can read more about our meeting with Gideon in our next blogpost.
