Salesforce asked me to to exhibit some of my collaborative drawing mechanisms during their Team Earth @ Dream Force event this fall. All of the attendees were very game to leave their comfort zone and make some art together! It was a lot of fun.
Ideation Roulette (ECM03), 1-4 players
Ideation Roulette is an activity designed to facilitate creative visualization through collaborative artwork. Up to 4 players have a few seconds to sketch or write on a card before the motorized board rotates and the card is transferred to one of the other players. After a few rounds, each of the players will have contributed to the pieces and the finished work is put on display. The purpose of this activity is to encourage players to make a mark intuitively. There are no “wrong responses” and drawing skill is not needed.
An Ideal World (ECM02), 1 player
Attendees are presented with a wall mounted mechanism with a paper disc partially exposed through an opening in the front. The disc is blank except for a simple line-art globe in the center. The attendee is invited add to the composition by drawing in the opening and advancing the disc for the next person. The theme is “An Ideal World” and the attendees can draw or write whatever inspires them. Finished works are displayed on the adjacent wall.
