Opening
Regular meeting of Frames Group
started at 10:40 21.01.2018 in BHSAD
by the chair Ksenia Semirova.
Agenda
Ksenia Semirova debriefs Angus
Colvin on work that’s already
done. Angus Colvin approves our
efforts, recommends to proceed
to the ideation stage — like
brainstorming and playing out
scenarios.
Angus Colvin announces new
deadlines — February 1st for
the presentation and February 4th
for the group labbook submission.
No final physical prototype is
expected.
All members of the group are
reporting on the “5 why’”s. Main and
common sentiments:
1. The men behind the Metal
Detectors’ are as, if not more,
important
as
the
devices
themselves;
2. These men (referenced in
the future as “Frame operator”)
are under a huge amount of stress
and redirect their frustration
towards the public;
3. The technology in the widespread
Metal Detectors’ models is
subpar — it restricts how they
can be installed; what materials
can be detected and how precisely
they can be detected;
4. Metal Detectors are frequently
poorly set-up: the high-pitch
noise annoying people around
and their sensors can barely
detect anything since they work
in a wrong mode;
5. Is perceived safety as high as
real safety and if no, how can we
manipulate it in order to ease up
this point of fatigue.
6. Are Metal Detectors in their
current form really necessary for
the safety?
7. Sometimes
Metal
Detectors
create bottlenecks for the
people — in a rush hour in
Moscow
Underground
it’s
pretty much their only function
(intentional);
8. Metal Detectors do not eliminate
the threats that will go off right in
front the Safety Theatre;
Daria Meshkova found the statistics
of how many terrorist acts has
happened in Russia since the Metal
Detectors were installed in most
public spaces. She has also mentioned
that, according to the news sources,
Israel backpedals on their policy of
technology’s role increasement and
downscale scanning technology in
order to increase human’s role in
threat detection.
The areas of ideation that we the
group decided to pursue:
1. Frame operator
2. Perceived safety
3. Technology and its appliance
4. Metal
detectors’
tuning,
positioning and appearance
5. Efficiency of the walk-through
metal detector in its current form
and in general
Semirova walks Angus through
the stuff that has been done by
the group on this day. After that
Angus Colvin asks people about the
roles and if people understand them
clearly.
Angus Colvin recommends splitting
the jobs that no one wants to do (like the
group did with the Market Research).
He also raises the question that as
the creative field will narrow down
it will be harder to utilize all 7 people
equally and that management, while
strict in administrative questions,
should keep things more equal when
it comes to creative processes.
New entries
1. Dasha should make a time-lapse
on the stadium;
2. Faina should make a time-lapse
on metro;
3. Sketches for the scenarios as an
outcome should be nice. Faina
said that she and Monica can
do it;
Agenda of the next meeting
1. Finalization of the ideation stage
(based on the new research input
and current ideation statements);
2. Experimentation stage (if there
will be enough time)
Closure of the meeting
The meeting was closed at 16:25 by
the chair Ksenia Semirova. The time
and date of the next meeting: 14:00
23.01.2019 in BHSAD.
After the lunch the group has another
meeting with Angus Colvin. Ksenia
Approval of minutes: Minutes of the last meeting approved
unanimously after its’ announcement.
