=== Tasks ===
* Complete Tasks 16, 17, 18
* Group project ideation:

You will create tangible objects that allow for remote gameful experiences. While we are generally very open and tolerant with your interpretation of this theme, there are a few characteristics that you should keep in mind:

- You will need to support remote playful interaction (i.e. at least two players in remote locations)
- The playful interaction should be based on very long turn-taking times (e.g. only one turn per day)
- The objects should be aesthetically pleasing, i.e. you will want to leave them prominently in your apartment because they serve as a decorative item

Your task for the next session: Create project ideas within your group (i.e. together with your team member) that are in line with this theme. You can use insight combination to do so, by following this approach:

- First, before meeting your partner, everyone of you should independently think about 5 types of games in a broader sense (e.g. bricks; board games; your favourite mobile game; ...)
- Second, before meeting your partner, everyone of you should think independently about 5-10 hardware components (sensors, actuators, etc.)
- Third, together (!) randomly pick one game type and one hardware component and imagine a project that is in line with our theme. Document your solution! Create and describe at least five projects this way. So, person A randomly picks both and describes a solution. Next, person B does the same, and so on.

Document those five ideas and submit them as well to Uni2Work. We will ask you to pitch at least two ideas during the next session!

Submission deadline: June 23 (Uni2Work)
