Design Game Design game will take place on 21 and 23 of June. For exact information check the "main conference programme" area. In a simulation of the design practice participants are requested to design a solution for a customer. The journey to the final design leads them through a "maze" every designer has to go through: how to get the required information from the customer? Designers are forced to think about their way of working: to design their own design process. The design game originally was made for the curriculum of the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague. Students for graphic design learn that not asking the right question or not thinking about the design process itself, never leads towards appropriate design. The design game create a small virtual world that hold all aspect of the real designers practice. Interested how your customer feels: play the game. Interested how your designer thinks: play the game. Additional to the game Petr van Blokland will reflect on the game results in relation to the daily practice of a designer and extentions will be made to disciplines as programming and artificial intelligence, whereas the connection to game theory easily can be made.
