Reimagine CoDesign Culture Lab
Ben Swift
28 Nov '19
we acknowledge and celebrate Australia's First Peoples on whose traditional lands we meet, and pay our respect to the elders past and present
The code/creativity/culture group (c/c/c) is a research group within the Research School of Computer Science. Our goal is to create spaces for talking, thinking and making about the way that code (software), creativity (especially the arts) and culture (life) intersect in the modern world.
(from the c/c/c website)
an ANU Extension program to teach computer science to year 11 & 12 students through making art, music and other cool things with computers
curriculum being developed right now (using COMP1720 & COMP2710 Laptop Ensemble as a starting point, but everything’s up for grabs!)
first student intake (year 11 only) in 2021, first graduates in 2022
your design brief for today: in your group, create an assessment task which teaches a particular code concept/tool by exploring a problem/challenge facing our culture through a particular creative process/medium
it might be used in the c/c/c studio 😊

look for the stickers on your table
red ⬤ = code
blue ⬤ = creativity
yellow ⬤ = culture
purple ⬤ = 💩
each group must have all of the stickers between them
your group needs to produce a document describing your assessment item, including:
there are lots of details on the workshop content page
objective: learning about ________ by exploring ________ through ________
think: how do we inspire & motivate everyone to make, and in doing so, to learn?
talk: what are the opportunities of the c/c/c framing? what are the problems?
make: produce an actual thing
