Topic: “Design Fiction Workshop: Wearables for Work-Life Balance”
Invited Speaker: You! This is a storytelling workshop where *you* get to tell the story of any weird and wonderful wearable tech you can imagine. The theme is “work-life balance” so we encourage you to think of a wearable that could make that easier, but if you have another idea we’d love to hear it. And if you have a story but public speaking isn’t your thing, you can give me your story and I’ll tell it on your behalf.
How: We have story prompts to inspire you on the day, and for those of you who like to plan ahead we’ll circulate participant information sheets a couple of days ahead. There will also be plenty of craft materials for you to portray the genius of your creation.
Funding for this meeting has been generously provided by ACM SIGBED.
