BioInspired! So What? Now What!

Kamelia Miteva is looking for creative people to join the Life’s Principles Game team.  Please contact her directly or use the Contact Us link. 

I am looking for 5 or 6 creative individuals to help develop ideas for a game on the concepts and application of the Life's Principles. Your challenge will be to help develop a series of scenarios or story lines that could be turned into group activities, board games and computer games. The goal of the project is to spread knowledge about the Life's Principles in a fun way and also to build skills in applying the Life's Principles to real-world problems. For more information about the project, see the article from the March 2011 issue of the BioInspired! newsletter.

The second NSF Bio-Inspired Design Workshop will be held in conjunction with the DCC 2012 Conference in Texas on June 5^th.  See Upcoming Events below for more details.

The 2012 Advisory Group has been focusing on the unique contribution that the Bio-Inspired Design Community could make to the field. Discussions have been wide-reaching, exploring the social, affective and cognitive aspects of design. Updates will be published as the group comes to a consensus.
