Ideation
We began our exploration of art and learning through the types of art we had all made whether through an organized class, sitting around the kitchen table, with friends or through free play. What were the memories of childhood? What were our feelings about our creations and the process? How do we relate to them now? How do they influence our own ideas about design? The ideation process takes place as we begin to think about each component of the ATOM project. From brainstorming, mind mapping and visualization we can tap our memories: visual, verbal and kinesthetic.
