In Winter 2008 we taught a “skills upgrade” workshop at the Copenhagen Institute for Interaction Design titled “Crafting Interactive Spaces”.

As architects and designers construct new visions of reactive environments, new tools for prototyping these environments are continuously being developed. The complexity of these projects in both space and time often precludes the ability for full prototypes, but at the same time we need to be able to use prototypes to explain these environments to others and ourselves.

We were honored to come to the Interaction Design Pilot year, which is descrbied on their site as “a collaborative initiative between Copenhagen Institute of Interaction Design (CIID) and The Danish Design School (DKDS). Our aim is for students, faculty and staff to work together in a multi-cultural, multidisciplinary studio environment to co-create a new kind of education that is relevant for academia and industry.” Sounded a lot like the Rockwell Group!

We were excited to see the variety of experience that the student’s brought to their work. From lighting design, photography, film, interaction design, and more they are able to rely on each other to accomplice complex tasks.
