Just came across this video at Mikko’s NoCry blog. I embed it here. It’s a 30 second film about the presentation we did in the LAVA09 conference.
And here’s the motorola by Johanna about journey and works in Iceland!
Hey, here is for you mine post-motorola about Lava. I wanna share it with you fellows.
1. What went well?
– We had a chance to do co-creating together and a chance to get know each other at good way -working together.
– We had there a great punch of people, all different, different ages and different countries, different skills and knowledges.
– I was really excited about our task and it was great to work with a new people from different backgrounds.
– Everybody was really involved in our process.
– That time together was really important to us, Monkeys. We got new ideas and we got a lot of inspiration.
– It was great to met Juha-Matti, who has drawn our super monkey and also Tupsu-cartoons.
– It was great to spend time with Nic, because I didin´t know him before so well.
– Iceland was an awesome place, I have always wanted to travel in there.
– We were sleeping last two days in a home of one local family. It was really nice and we got touch the country whole different way.
– We met one Finish girl who study in Iceland and she told to us plenty stories about Iceland and Grönland.
– We spend too much cash – we bought and ate too much of banana candies, so we didin´t have enough money to go back to our Icelandic home by bus. So we had to hick-hike. It was new experience to me. And one new banana story to tell.
– We were in a great jazz bar, where was going on some great jazz jams.
2. What went poorly?
– We didin´t have time to close our process together. So I´m not sure of that did everybody understand the hole process and what happened and why.
– We didn´t have so much free time over there so we couldn´t go far away from Reykjavik. We need to go again over there.
– We had only short time to be House of Ideas, Design Central and other places.
3. What did I learn?
– I learn to know new peoples and working with them.
– Creative chaos is a good thing, you just have to know how to lead that.
– Be brave to challenge of process.
– It´s hard to get of the box what you have.
– To courageous of your heart it´s working.
– If you have too much of negative pressure, it locks you up.
– I learn more about my self and Monkeys.
4. What I gonna do next?
– I want to be in contact all those new people who I met in there and maybe we can do something together for future also.
– I wanna go sometimes back in there and maybe surf there.
– I got many of new handcraft ideas.
– I send post-motorola for everyone.
So here is something what I´m thinking of this process. It would be nice to here something for all of you also.
I hope we can see each others sometimes again. You are heartly welcome to Finland and visiting to us.
Have a great time and keep it yellow!
Loads of fun and huge hugs!
Johanna
