Mygenovasi Design Thinking Workshop

As a mass comm student, i am always curious on how design workshop is about, though i have attended a couple of workshops before, mygenovasi has guided me to an interesting level on how to think step by step.



What is mygenovasi is about:
"We inspire, create and empower a movement of innovators for the betterment of self, environment and the world"

Spacious space for workshop 
Interesting concept of interior and mixture of colours 

Mission

Use DESIGN THINKING 
To inspire multidisciplinary teams

Foster RADICAL COLLABORATION between participants and industry

Tackle BIG PROJECTS
And use prototyping to discover new solutions




Project partners that they have collaborated with 




Indoor futsal? never seen an office that have this to release stress. lol! 

They have 3 studios and each studios door have an interesting lego design to run their weekly workshops 



 Studio 
 As we entered the studio, it is very industrial theme and i love high chairs! Makes me shake leg! Kidding.


Here is how our session goes:



One of the organizer giving speech and hosted the whole training module with us lead by Azman Ismail 




 Training Module 



Here goes!! our training module! 

Now imagine if someone has a hand injury, the character we played was Ismail. So we had to tape our hand and express what we feel? how we feel? what are the difficulties we are facing?



Again, here is where i learned, people tape their fingers differently! some tape 2 fingers in one tape or the whole hand or small little plasters.


Deep deeper into your thoughts. and what do you feel? pain? discomfort? I couldnt even write with tape on my fingers! 


What is your aim to overcome the pain? 





Hmmm yeah? Maybe? how to speed up? 


SO we needed to create a prototype in order to know our idea works! oo FUn! get t play with props!
Before we do the prototype, we have to sketch it out 
Props given! 

Thats me thinking if my idea is even workable? or am i going in the wrong path?


Here is our messy table! 




Our collection of ideas. Mine is the biggest

picture is blur due to my 50mm lens 



 Everyone is finding a solution on how to overcome his writing and using different ways like voice control, or electric writing or something but for me.. i really feel like there are so many other ways to overcome it besides finding a solution on how he can write again?
Sometimes it is good to share out your ideas to other people not because your afraid they will copy you but to give you feedbacks on ideas and how you can improve. 

Having to see so many ideas from everyone opens up your creativity mind 





There is no right and wrong answer 

SO in conclusion my idea wasnt really a writing equipment as i read " think deeper" so i thought of with a injured hand, i imagined if Ismail was a famous boxer like "million dollar baby" haha, he inspires people am i right? 

With an injured hand, it doesnt not only stop him from holding on to his career or life but what he can do was to speak out on his story. He could do thinks verbally or teach or lecture. Who knows if he did find a way to solve his pain, it will not only take time to heal and not go back to boxing again so might as well he could teach? so i decided that my idea was to make a mini bowing gym for him to teach. 

How is he going to teach? 
I mean if you have a famous boxer opening a gym, who deosnt want to right? Many people would train after him, so he would pick his best mate to help me guide. 

Benefits of the gym 
1) Gain a whole new experience 
2) While he out for check ups and all, he could hire boxers from around the world to teach 
3) Media will start realizing how inspiring the story of Ismail is and write about him 
4) If he has kids, it is a good way for them to start sports like his father. 
Thats my waking up early face! 


That is basically my mini gym, it isnt that nice as we only had 5- 10 minutes to do it. So i had to rush.

It looks quite decent right? 

There is a bench, counter, punching bag, locker on the far right and water dispenser thats looks like a tombstone on the far left. lol





So here is a funny tire to play with at the office just to spare some time!





So if you want to expand your creativity!
