Interactive Feedback Machine

We are so proud to share with you the interactive feedback machine that has been developed through co-production with Illuminate Collective, and skill sharing sessions led by Illuminate members Callum Mulligan and Hannah Satchwell. In the spirit of Leonardo Da Vinci who's 10 drawings from The Royal Collection were recently on display at Nottingham Castle, we have looked at design, testing and prototyping.
What does it do? It allows visitors to give feedback about sites they have visited and allows us to get data about the range of people that visit Nottingham Museums.
The interactive has been developed through discussion, conversations and experiments with Outburst, young people's group at NGY, visitors at Nottingham Castle and visitors to Derby Makers Faire.
We can't wait to share the interactive with you - it's currently doing a tour and is available at Nottingham Industrial Museum.
The interactive itself has a Rasberry Pi centre for data collection, a laser cut exterior, infinity mirrors and allows you to have a printed alien when you have given your feedback.

Turning our designs into InDesign files

The next session saw us move to The Lofthouse in Hockley, a space for Nottingham's art community to come and make things happen. They host band nights, a radio station and workshops as well as housing three macs which each have creative suite on them and are available for people to book to use.

We visited to have our own introduction to InDesign session ran by Illuminate member Callum Mulligan.

Layout and InDesign

We are coming to the end of  our " A World to Win" project and as part of the legacy of the project we wanted the group to have the skills, contacts and resources to carry on making their own posters and zines.

To enable this we planned two final workshops, one to look at general design principles to help the group design eye catching print and secondly an introduction to InDesign session so they could turn there ideas into a printable file.
