Lukas Flynn
I prototype products, services and the business models behind them, from tangible interaction to emerging tech.
I facilitate systems transformation processes and strategic foresight in the intersection of policy, products, and people.

Experiments & Prototypes
The Secret Emotion of Objects
During an experience prototyping course we were challenged to use video as a method of prototyping. Our topic assigned was complexity and we chose to dig into the complexity of devices communicating and connecting with each other. Our question was simple: how would they talk and how do they feel.
Data Receipts
With our data being collected nearly continuously, this concept explores how to make visible this continual stream of transactions. The object asks the question: what is necessary for people to understand how our objects interact with us? This speculative object is connected to smart hubs and proposes that every time a connected device sends data to the parent company a receipt is printed. Pretty soon there will be a mountain of receipts piled next to connected things. There is however a ‘bliss’ button that pauses the printing of receipts for a predetermined amount of time.
