TorCampDesignSlam 1.0 AKA SlamCamp

A TorCamp event Held Saturday, February 25, 2006, 2:30–6:00, Navantis, Inc.

I'd like to thanks everyone who came out for the Design Slam. The turnout was great and I hope we can do this again. -- BryceJohnson

Results

Four teams of seven or eight participants, each named after a children's gift label handed out randomly to participants, competed in this competition to redesign the city's megabin garbage containers.

Results from judges

Judges scored the event as follows:

  1. Team Swiss Cheese won the event (62 points)
  2. Team Baobab (58)
  3. Team Japanese Air Guitar (57)
  4. Team Piggybank (54.5)

Results from peers

Each team scored all the other teams on the same criteria the judges used. Score sheets were retained and tabulated, adding up everything but the mayor's score (which only some people filled in). The highest-scoring team on each sheet was given one point. The same was done with the judges' scoring. This Freakonomics-style measurement assesses overall winners rather than fine-tuning by number of points; in a real-world client presentation, only one team would win. (A single score sheet with a tied result was discarded. The city has a troubled history of dealing with tie votes.)

Peers scored the event as follows:

  1. Team Baobab won with 15 votes
  2. Team Swiss Cheese (11)
  3. Team Piggybank (1) & Team Japanese Air Guitar (1)

Judges and peers essentially agreed. Judges assigned two votes each to Baobab and Swiss Cheese, the only credible finalists. Baobab won the popular vote by a reasonable margin, but Baobab and Swiss Cheese trounced the other teams. Swiss Cheese won the judges' vote. The presumed real-world outcome would involve Swiss Cheese's getting the contract and Baobab launching a lawsuit. wino kredyt mieszkaniowy sprzedam mieszkanie sprzedam bilet

If you liked DesignSlam then you'll love this (maybe)

The City of Toronto is in the process of running a coordinated street furniture project with the stated aim to 'harmonize the design and placement of street amenities in an aesthetically appealing, functional and accessible manner.'.

You can get involved 'learn more about the Coordinated Street Furniture Program, and provide the city with your comments' by attending one of the four workshops running Feb 28 - March 7, the date is March 6 for the downtown workshop.

I can guarantee this won't be as much fun as DesignSlam, but perhaps it will mean we don't have some much poorly thought out city street furniture to focus on at future DesignSlams.

Sorry this is slightly off-topic, but hopefully it's close enough to be relevant - PatrickDinnen

Mini-FAQ

  • What's the point?
A Design Slam is where we have a fictitious company present a problem to "agencies" made of random torcampers. These ingenious and innovative people will have a set block of time to design and pitch their idea to the company.

  • Who can come?
Everyone is welcome! Just Edit this page and add your name under Attendees, below, so that we have a rough idea of numbers.

  • What are the rules?
Rule #1 of SlamCamp: Bring Your Brain to Slam Camp ;)

Rule #2 of SlamCamp: No computers allowed. Why no computers? - Because real design is done with your brains and your peers.
