Abstract

This workshop aims to bring people from academic and corporate organisations together to facilitate discussions about the different reasons for developing and sharing prototypes, as well as to provide a forum for the attendees to share methods, tools and techniques for supporting the creative design process. The seeding of this discussion aims to inspire the attendees to further these ideas within their organisations, and through this integrate the 'hacker' mindset - the idea of putting together existing resources in a clever fashion to suit other purposes [6] -- into their own development methodology.
