WILDFIRE Co-Design @ New Scientist Live and @ Lewisham Youth Theatre and Phoenix Housing Association
SMASH_UK Climate Crisis - WILDFIRE! 2022-23
Our new programme and series of events - WILDFIRE! - culminating in a situated fully immersive experience that’s a bit escape room, a bit simulation environment, a bit immersive theatre production debuting in March 2023. Everything is being co-designed & co-produced with young people’s community groups, participating professional engineers, climate science and fire and rescue experts.
Phase 1 of the project has focussed on developing the general scenario, visual and interaction concepts, collaborative and community co-design programmes. This culminated in a Minimal Viable Product prototype of an element of the experience, to be played by a team of three in a mixed digital and physical adventure.
We were at New Scientist Live for three days testing our the MVP experience demonstrator & co-designing around it with public participants and volunteer engineers.
The outcomes, insights and ideas developed through the testing and co-design is forming the foundation of our Phase 2 work and the performance events being developed with Lewisham Youth Theatre and Phoenix Housing Association #BEin programme.
