Vanessa visited Aalborg, Denmark to meet the Research Center for Socio+Interactive Design and Platform4, an experimental music, technology and art space to discuss the Mechanics of Meaningfulness. She presented 5 cases of exploring the design space of meaningfulness and non-screen, tangible devices. The event was presented as: “Do you want to explore how you can design for purpose, individuality, long-lifetime, and existence? Vanessa Carpenter has been examining how to enable meaningful experiences in the use of smart products and will take you through a series of questions and analysis and tell a how product experience is, or is not, enabling meaningful experiences for its users”  (See event here) apoteksv.se.
