The thinkpublic Design Clinic will be running throughout the second day at 2gether08. Whether you have arrived at the festival with an idea already forming or you find that a session or group of people have inspired you with a new idea, the thinkpublic Design Clinic will help to develop that idea into a more tangible solution. thinkpublic's design process will help to view the challenge or idea from new perspectives, as well as using future visioning techniques to view the solution ahead of time, and then map back what needs to happen to get you there. Most useful of all will be the chance to speed-prototype something to take away with you on the day, or to have sent to you following the festival. The hope is that by creating something that feels more real, the next steps to make it real will become clearer and will inspire action beyond the event.
Sessions will last an hour at a time and collaborators need to be in groups no larger than 4 people. We would encourage everyone to bring with them some collaborators as this process works much better as a team, and is also a great way of honing the necessary collaboration skills that you might need to make your idea happen. This is a fast and fun and creative experience and we recommend that people book up sessions early.

On the hour, every hour. In the Staff Room and The Study
