Individual research was conducted tackling the topics of going to sleep, sleeping, dreaming, lucid dreaming, waking up and the rituals, gadgets, problems, medical conditions and facilitators/aids involved in these processes, also supported with references of science, pseudo-science, film and art.
Examples:
- Electronic sleep mask for a worry-free train nap
- Dream Helmet
- xslabs from Joanna Berzowska - electronic textiles and reactive garments
- "How To" the LilyPad Arduino
Brainstorming
Reviewing our research, scenarios and suitable personas were created, in brainstorming sessions in the group, in which sleeping and dreaming play an important role. We identified problems experienced by these personas and their possible solutions.
