Introduction
For this activity, we were given a set of situations and we were supposed to imagine that they were true. As a group, we recorded some daily life activities that would have been carried out if such scenarios were actually real.
The situation that was given to our group was-
What if Humans laid Eggs?
Main Activity
For the main activity, we started out by planning the work flow
Then, we together as a group listed down how everyday tasks would go about if humans laid eggs instead of giving birth to babies. Some of the possible scenarios we came across were-
After listing down all the possible scenarios, we had a discussion about how the shape and size of the egg would look like. We came up with these possibilities. The texture and color of the egg was also an important aspect.
The incubation and nursery spaces were designed according to the needs of an egg. The nursery room has a warm color palette like brown and orange to keep the egg warm.
We then designed some safe carriers for the egg. Extra cushions were required as the egg is very delicate and needs to be protected from breaking.
An interesting discussion took place about how the social settings will change if they were celebrating an egg. Instead of baby showers people would celebrate hatching day as it is something that friends and relatives can also experience.
Lastly, we talked about the clothing and decorations for the egg and came up with soft clothes and a fur sweater women can wear to keep the egg warm.
Reflection
During this task, we worked collectively as a group and were able to come up with fun ideas for the possible scenarios.
For today's activity we used a different way of presenting i.e the Google Slides.
From today's activity I realised that if the given scenarios were true in real life, how it would be the new normal and people would not find it crazy of weird
Along with the activity, I learnt that planning things in advance can make a big difference as we would be prepared to do the tasks according to the plan and give suitable time without causing any chaos.
