-## A serious talk about the importance of being playful – Thomas Forsyth
-
-Find out how being playful can help you develop creative products, companies and relationships whoever you are online, or offline.
-
-Come along and explore your inner child (sensibly) and go away with fresh creative ideas for building products, business and creative strategies. Google's success is built around a sense of play… so yours could be too.
-
-As we develop into adulthood, the type of play in which we partake commonly becomes increasingly structured or rule-based. I am challenging preconceptions towards rules within play, and attempting to create the opportunity to indulge in the process of touch and exploration in a way that adults are rarely encouraged.
-
-Tom is essentially creating an excuse to interact with objects in the way that children do. Tom has explored a number of different approaches:
-
-- Strategies that allow things / events to be discovered through interaction, rather than defining them in advance.
-- Using the perception of a game as a temporary 'low-risk' environment, in which it is acceptable to interact with the aesthetic/tactile qualities of objects.
-- Use of emergent properties, such as mark, structure or surprise, as a means of engaging people with the objects.
-
-Toms work explores the gap between spontaneous/creative and rule-bound forms of play. The concluding objects strive to make a personal adventure of ideas and concept accessible to all.
