It isn't China. I isn't the United States. Its Bolivia.I wanted to post here because there is such a high level of interest in Santa Cruz de la Sierra Bolivia in China and in ethnography.
There was so much interest that there were 30 participants in our workshop on ethnography, business, and design during the past three days. The results, this time, were design specifications for products or services linked to specific areas where teams conducted a brief ethnographic study: a market place, a sugar wholesaler, a pirate DVD street-vendor and associated formal retail store. (In the photo is Karime, associated with the Art Gallery that co-hosted the invent!)
The results were innovative, fun, and well documented. Rather like the projects this class is working on for China, no?
Thanks to all who have turned in their diaries. I look forward to seeing more of those, and look forward to getting home from this long Andean trip, in a week!
