SUNY Farmingdale State College in NY and Edinburgh Napier University in Edinburgh Scotland have kicked off their five-day Blended Spaces Workshop. The goal is to use fundamental principles of interaction design, mixed reality and how designers can solve human problems at heritage locations.  Farmingdale and Napier students used the backdrop of Jupiter Art Land to explore the sculpture park, learn more about sustainable agriculture and produce design scenarios that produced new experiences for visitors.

Students from both institutions have teamed up at the Centre for Interaction Design to dive deeper into Professor David Benyon’s interaction design research in Blended Theory.
