Gijon Creative jam 2019

The notes here are taken quickly and will be consolidated with feedback from partners.

Background

This creative jam draws lessons from the experience of Lugo Creative Jam in Lugo, and from various partners' remarks at conferences Main Lessons from AYCH in Brussels. The aim was to give young people present a creative experience, but also to disseminate AYCH tools in the hubs, in particular through the creation of hub mentor groups.

Two guiding documents were produced with the experience of the Brest hub and the support of Plymouth: the mentor's notebook and a welcome kit for young people Welcome kit Gijon

For this second creative jam, were present: 5 nationalities, 72 students, 30 mentors and accompanying, from 16 to 30 years.

The School of Design mobilized: 4 students, 2 supervisors, a communication officer for the production of thematic films.

Objectives

A goal of disseminating tools

  • Reuse tools already used in other contexts
  • Disseminate tools in hubs through this event: presence of observers or mentors from other hubs to ensure replicability in the hubs.

A reinforcement of the transnational dynamics (see the report of the creative jam of Lugo)

  • Work on a transnational dynamic (which has been progressive)
  • The objective of giving birth to projects was this time secondary.

General scheme

3 days with continuity and theme: reinventing the city

  • Icebreaker, discovery: test of a game icebreaker (bright mirror) and discovery of the city in investigation mode
  • Technical Workshops (list of workshops here): delivered by each of the partners
  • Hackathon (1 day for “hacker” elements of the city) and reuse the elements of the workshops (techniques, etc.)

FOCUS on a tool: Idea Wall as a binder of creative jam

IDEA WALL has served as a common thread throughout these days of creativity. This tool had already worked well in Lugo and Tate Modern as starter of a creative emulsion and icebreaker. He has done his work again, but some improvements could be made.

See how to feed it not in the context of workshops, but put it in strategic places and explain the rules at startup. Make tools available to complete this chart throughout the 3 days.

Balance sheet

of the organization, areas for improvement

  • The small details of the organization (power strips, cables, screens etc.)
  • Poor sound quality to make intermediate announcements
  • Room unfavorable (big development work) and big resonance / noise
  • Play well on the music: to have more attention during the announcements.
  • Waiting for HDMI / VGA displays / connectivity: ensure both upstream
  • For juries, upload presentations
  • Internet connection sometimes poor quality
