Posted by Joseph Grogan @ 8:20 AM. What my product ended up to be. My product is aimed at the building site in the area of scaffold safety. Surprisenly...

Enviro - sphere
Monday, May 29, 2006. After taking into consideration all the research and interviews I designed a prototype product of how games and stories could be incorporated together to make a fun learning experience. On the right is a picture that shows what the game looks like. It is a 2D platform game and the object is to collect the paper that is flying around the forest with a net gun. There are also lumberjacks that are running around and you have to stop them from cutting down the forest. My Call Of Duty.

Personal stuff
Saturday, February 18, 2006. Which came first "The Chicken or the egg". In this case, the egg is not assumed to be a chicken egg. In effect this changes the question to: "Which came first, a chicken or any. In this case, the first chicken must have been the mutated offspring of a proto-chicken that laid the egg containing the first true chicken. One can only define what was the first chicken after the fact, thus any definition of the first chicken becomes arbitrary. The question 'which came first? The tr...

User centred design
Thursday, December 01, 2005. Presentation - mini disc player redesigned. I’m a NERVOUS WRECK, and I can’t bear to do presentations. I just feel weird when I have to pitch ideas to people. As I was doing the presentation one of my slides was in the wrong place and I got so confused I ended up rushing through the presentation and I have a feeling I’m not going to get a great mark, but hopefully it should be alright. Posted by Joseph grogan @ 2:54 PM. Thursday, November 24, 2005. Questions for the user.
