Week 43: Spotify


Group name: At the moment we will keep the name Spotify as the group name. But till the final presentation we will give our final “product” a name.



What we have done: We have looked at some information about the digital services that you can use today and especially some magazine services. We tried to book an interview with Spotify, but have not yet get an interview. We are still waiting for an answer from one person that work there. We have planned an designworkshop to next thursday and made an schedule on what we are going to do, on which time. Also planned what everyone should do and what equipment we are going to need.
We also booked an focus group, the main purpose to have a foucs group is to get feedback on the ideas we get from our designworkshop, and a second opinion on the sketches we are suppose to do.
We also made an document for the book chapter. Where we already can right down the things we done, put in good sources or hand in good pictures in.

Problems encountered: It seems to be difficult to get an interview with Spotify. We don’t have any place to have the designworkshop at the moment, the only big room that students can borrow is unavailable. But we are working on the problem at the moment.

What we will do: Accept the methods we have planned to do. We are going to make a film for the presentation, and also of course make a powerpoint presentation. We have planned start times and deadlines for these activities.

When we finished the methods we are going to have a solution for the final “product”. The solution need to be in some kind of prototype that we can demonstrate. We think we are going to solve the problem by doing it in Photoshop.

Changes in the project: We have not made any changes since the last meeting with Daniel and Leif.
