How might we… build a cheap, accessible, open-source audio device?
We organised two Design Sprints at We Fab, a Fab Lab in São Paulo.
The first event brought together a dozen makers over a week-end in July 2016, the second event attracted about 20 people on a Friday evening and Saturday in October 2016. By the end of the first event, we had a Minimum Viable Product (MVP), a working prototype. The goal of the second Design Sprint was to refine this prototype and add more functionalities.
As the “expert”, I gave a quick overview of the use of mobile devices in museums since the 1950s. I also participated as an apprentice maker, messing around mostly with the laser cutter and a little bit with the 3D printer. Finally, I documented the Sprint, taking pictures and making a short “usage” video.
