I saw it. Then I heard it.

Going over my data again for a thesis chapter on workshops and I had a few kids produce some absolute gold from participatory workshops. What a journey

Occasionally I send a TV/Film advert to my Fiancee to ask "did you cast/work on this?" It always exciting to see the huge amount of projects she works on and I'm so impressed how she handles it all.

Conducted a deductive qualitative analysis across all the workshops I did last year. Finally a draft together on factors to impact young people's participation in the co-design of applied games. Interesting to see how interaction preferences have changed from paper to digital.
