what
ICATIME is a fascinating collection of drawings on how people visualize time and a workshop that expands our collective imagery of the passage of time, both on an individual or an organizational level. The workshop is offered in three increasing levels of complexity, from sketching to prototyping, that can be done singularly or in small groups.
WHERE
Online, in person
WHO

Step 1
MAP TIME / Individual sketch
Max: 20 participants
Target: age 5 – 99
15 minutes to draw a personal sketch about “what Time looks like”.
Even if you never thought about it before, you will probably draw something immediately, as if you always knew, what time “looks like” for you. What emerges is an unexpected variety of visuals, ranging from minimal abstractions to complex symbolic forms.
Step 2
SHAPE TIME / Individual prototype
Max: 20 participants
Target: age 5 – 99
30 minutes to develop a prototype with objects.
Choose your objects from a suitcase full of unusual items and combine them to physically represent how you feel the passage of time. When everybody has finished, each participant describes her prototype and the meaning of each item.
Step 3
DEVELOP TIME / Team prototype
Max: 20 participants
Target: age 5 – 99
90 minutes to develop a collective prototype with objects.
ICATIME is also a participatory design tool motivating collective visual reflection. The team now has to physically represent their collective perception of passage of time. The difficult aspect is to co-create a common imagery of Time. At the end each group describes its prototype and the meaning of the items.
