Neveroddoreven – Serpentine Gallery
We, åbäke and I, just released our last collaboration, with the Serpentine Gallery:
The website is projected in classrooms where workshops are being held. It gives the teachers a sort of toolbox for activities around dyslexia as a way of empowering creativity. It delivers pdf documents to print, explaining activities and how to design your own based on a few examples. Each of these examples is «illustrated» by sections of the website which are an introduction for children in the classroom, a visual stimulation.
Workshop projects have been initially developed by artist Michaela Ross – and the initially established processes are now supported by this new tool and the friendly help of designers åbäke. First common workshop was held on last friday, after the launch on wednesday the 28th of March at the Serpentine Gallery. It received good feedbacks and we are definitely looking forward for more experiments of this kind to be co-designed.
