How might we care for each other on a collective level during the process of grieving? For this workshop, we will build a multisensory grieving ritual to be experienced with a group of strangers using design thinking frameworks and rapid prototyping. Participants will experience ideating, designing the choreography, setting the environment, emotional journey mapping and performing the designed ritual with a focus on stimulating our five senses. There will be space for discussion afterwards to share our thoughts and feelings after experiencing the rituals.
Light snacks and refreshments will be provided.

在哀思的過程中，我們如何在集體層面上表達互相關懷？在今次工作坊中，我們將嘗試用設計思維框架和快速模擬來建立一個多感官的哀思儀式，讓一群陌生人來體驗。 參與者將體驗構思、設計動作、設置環境、情感體驗地圖和執行設計的儀式，以刺激我們的五種感官做重點。 之後會有討論的時間，分享我們在經歷儀式後的想法和感受。
工作坊將提供小食和飲品。
