Stephanie Heckman has developed a hand drawn immersive space for collaboration in response to Covid-19. Stephanie has developed a prototype for generating VR illustrations to support collective working through visual facilitation.
Stephanie is a visual facilitator who had observed the unique set of challenges digital platforms pose to a streamlined communication experience. Stephanie has pioneered immersive technology to explore visual facilitation in response to the risk of missing nonverbal cues and clues, proper eye contact and attuned ‘turn-taking’ in speech, and everything from gesticulation to the tactility of whiteboards, paper, and post it notes that are employed in collective planning. Stephanie used VR drawing apps to create live streams in zoom and developed immersive worlds for visual facilitation. Generating new platforms for collaboration during and beyond the Covid-19 Crisis.
