PROGRESSION
WEEK 1 (03/04/2023):
Today, the first class of Collaborative Design Project, which is lectured
by Ms. Lilian. We were tasked on to be on a group of aprox. 5 people. Ms.
Lilian created some breakout rooms, which later we moved on any one of
them to join the group. When everyone went to Group 1 and 2, I decided to
went to group 3 :D, so I met Shofwa, Metta, and Wai Fern, and also Haura.
Then we formed a group and named the group as Blister Bunch with Shofwa as
the leader, since I guess she has a good leadership and management.
Ms. Lilian explained on the timeline. First task is to create an Empathy
Map and Defining The Problem Statements. We created a MIRO Board and
discussed there.
We started on the research. Our research is basically conducted using
Qualitative Methodology, by using past research to understand more about
the ideas. We dumped out some findings we have on MIRO.

Then proceed on choose which one is needed and which one we should remove,
and thus, we decided to use these.

After that, we proceed on making some Empathy Map to help determine the
problem statements. The empathy map we use is basically the standard one,
the usual one I experience on doing it on UI/UX Classes, which consisted
as; Says,see - Thinks - Does - Feels. Then we brought down and
filled on the columns as follow;

After defining those 2 points, research and empathy maps, we defined our
problem statements, by creating some problem questions to help on defining
the final problem statements:
- How can we make people aware of the environmental impact of inhalers and blister packaging through our art?
- How can we reduce medical waste and educate the public about medical waste?
- How to encourage Malaysians to give back their unused medical packaging (inhalers, blister packs etc) through our art?
From those three questions we used as the guidelines, we created the
problem statements:

2. The Sea

Also, we began on creating the presentation slides. Also, we got a new
member, Shayor.
For the presentation slides, me, Haura and Wai Fern are tasked to design, while the rest do the sketches, since most of them are Entertainment Design Student. I helped creating some assets and designed the cover:

WEEK 2 (10/04/2023):
The next session is divided into each sessions per group, so we got
assessed per groups. On this week, we were feedback about our presentation
slides, thus, feedbacks can be seen on
[feedbacks].
From the feedback, we know that we need to fix on our empathy map. We
decided to create a specific an expanded users as follows:

WEEK 3 (17/04/2023):
We did our presentation. For our submission on Task 1 (that day midnight),
we need to do more about our user persona, based on the feedback. We
conducted a group meeting, which we discussed on the User Personas. We
define how many target users we are on.

So, we came up with these as our finals:
PROJECT PROPOSAL:

PROJECT DOCUMENTATION:

FEEDBACKS
WEEK 1 (03/04/2023):
-
to do:
- Create presentation slides [move everything in MIRO]
- Start on some sketches
- Compile questions for INDEED
WEEK 2 (10/04/2023):
- Create audience/persona as the current empathy map is target on us, student
- How does the problem question solve the issue?
- Problem questions very good and accurate
- Can cover the overall environment ( from the sky to the tree)
- Incorporate balloon into the idea/ sketches
- Visuals/ sketches into another new slides
- Show more ideas
- Expand idea 4
- Clean up task 1, move out the sketches to task 2
WEEK 3:
- Create personas
to do:
- Create personas
EXPERIENCE:
I experienced on working with team members. Communication isn't really my thing, but I did try my best as I can to contribute and support my group. Working around for task 1 with them is an interesting experience I had, even I sometimes feel like we did too many meetings but not much output, but I guess as everyone started to settle in with the group, everything is doing awesome and I really looking forward to work with them to create the sculpture in physical classes.
OBSERVATION
I observed that wastes can be turned into an interesting art installations. Through the reference looking process me and my group mates did, I observe that most of the art installation didn't require specific materials/ expensive materials to be powerful enough to deliver the messages. It's all just about the concept.
FINDINGS
This module attracted my interest more about medical wastes, mostly on blister packs. I didn't realize that blister packagings really a part of dangerous wastes out there. I just thought it's just a small thing and even it's only one (mine) it won't really affect on with the environment, but I was wrong!
