UNITE GamiFOREST Coffee Talks #2
LUDIC SPATIAL STRATEGIES & FOREST SPACES by Mattia Thibault
Date: March 18, 2022
Time: 13:00 (Helsinki Time)
Zoom Link: https://tuni.zoom.us/j/67954634202
How can the organisation of a space favour playfulness, creativity and curiosity? If we look at existing spaces designed to host playfulness (theme parks, arenas, interactive museums, playgrounds, casinos, treetop parks and so on) we can try to outline a series of spatial strategies that are put in place exactly to this end. But how can these strategies be applied to a space with an emergent morphology and an intrinsically open-ended configuration?
WHAT ARE UNITE GAMIFOREST COFFEE TALKS?
The aim of the Gamiforest Coffee Talks is to give the latest updates about the different projects going on in the scope of the Gamification Work Package of Unite Project and start conversations around them. Each month a researcher from Gamification Group, Tampere University will give talks about the subjects below. Our ultimate purpose with these talks is to create awareness about the possible ways of gamifying forests, raise discussions, hear the feedback of the community and form collaborations with the interested parties.
