Today morning we left Kunstenniemi after a delicious breakfast. After a quick freshing up at home we headed to ICT - house to telling everybody of our project.
At the afternoon everybody presented their projects at the BOOST stage. After all "little" problems with the technology we were really pleased to our presentation and we felt like we have really assimilated our challenge. At the end of this show there was voting for the best presentation and we were number 3!! Wooou we were so excited about this :D
One and a half week later (at 26.11.) we will meet all groups again at the BOOST's space and doing something, we don't know yet what it will be.. :P
So see ya all @ there!

Total eclipse of the brain
After the previous posting we have done a poster, half a prezi-presentation and a report from our project which will be given to SOS - Lapsikylä's representative.
Our biggest challenge today has been BAD INTERNET CONNECTION that has driven us crazy several times.. luckily, the subject of this project has been interesting and that has kept this team on track!
We're almost done (NOT!!!), because Prezi has "a problem" with the page or then somebody is hacking our presentation. Still, what started out as a chaos of crazy ideas has now turned into something great. We're proud of our work and looking forward to sharing it with our fellow In(no-)mates, our coaches, and most of all - our customer SOS-Lapsikylä.
The only ones making noise at the Kunstenkari cottage at 2:10 AM are the hard-working Team Smash-Up, Bonnie Tyler and the Scorpions.

1 000 000 ideas
In the afternoon we mixed up the teams and got to share thoughts about our projects and give and get feedback about the work that already has been done. Now we're starting to prepare for tomorrow and make our prezi and write our report!
To be continued...
Greetings from Kunstenniemi!
First day @ Kunstenniemi was really effective: eating, ideation, eating and innovation again.. mainly eating.
We have enjoyed all the teamwork and working for this particular company for such a good cause. We have co-operated with the other team working for SOS Children's Village and shared our ideas and point of views. Our crew has made up awesome ideas today!
The last task for today was crazy brainstorming before going to sleep. Clock is now around 00:00 and here you have the athmosphere from the last minutes.. :D

Are you having dangerous toughts?
I read a book Vaaralliset ideat (Farliga ideer) by Alf Rehn and I'm really mad at myself for not reading this book earlier! Altough Alf Rehn hoped that people reading his book would be at least little angry, I absolute loved it! Sometimes I had to put the book down for a minute because I was laughing so much :D It's not a very long book but it's heavy stuff (in a good way)!
I try to give you guys some info without telling the whole book.
First, there are 5 steps of dangerous thinking: Copying (matkiminen), Extending the thing you are copying (laajentaminen), Be provocate (provosoiminen), Re-evaluation (uudelleen arviointi) and Dangerous thinking (vaarallinen ajattelu). Because the wasn't in English, I hope you don't understand it very wrong!
So, one of the main points is, that copying someone else's idea is not always a bad thing to do, lets think about Apple! Alf Rehn says that people have two boxes in their head, the first on is the most used part. That has everything that is familiar to us. Then, there is the second box, wicth we use when we extend our thinking. This is not nice, but under stress we can do it. Then, there is the secret world behind our "protection wall" holding the dangerous toughts away from us! Let's see if we can get a sneek peek there in Kunstenniemi ;)
I decided to put Alf Rehns picture here instead of a picture of his book, I think this makes him justice.

Shaking the world
I read a book called Ravistettava - Omskakas by Saku Tuominen & Katja Lindroos and at the moment I'm so excited about that!
This book tells about this: how you have to be ready for the changing world all the time and what you have to do and how you have to think to achieve all the things you want. This concerns all parts of your life; school, work, freetime and hobbies. Everything is not always what it looks like. Shake it a little bit.
In its simplicity, this is a book about innovation. An a really good one so please, go and get one also!
I'd like to share some parts of the book, that popped up to me while reading:

"In this book we talk about thinking the other way,
which is like excited wondering.
Usually people think 'WHY this have to be like this' instead of
'WHAT IF this would be like this'.

I'd like to share some parts of the book, that popped up to me while reading:
- The world changes so fast and human slowly. Humans just have to adapt.
- When a student graduates from school, 50% of the knowledge he/she has just wrote to all the schoolpapers, is already outdated.
- In year 2008 there were one new product per 3 minute that has been published to the audience.
- Hurry is one of the worst enemies in ideation process and creative thinking.
- We are not couraged to hesitate anything. We learn to swallow without thinking. We learn to believe blindly. When we continue to working life from school, we have become humans who have learned not to question enything.
" That situation, that everything is ok,
doesn't mean that it couldn't be any better."
