Context Report:

‘Critical-
play’



This BA Design final year thesis is one produced by Jakob Icke:

Made for by hand, printed on Extra Gloss 115gsm paper.

“This report will begin to define what we mean by 
‘critical play’ an approach to design that positions ‘play’ or ‘playfulness’ as a tool to process or to engage with information or challenges in our everyday lives.

I arrived at this term through my own practice, finding critical thinking a somewhat ineffective way to approach my own creative challenges. Play allows us to think horizontally across problems, rejecting academic preciousness that so often inhibits our ability to hap-hazardously explore all corners of a project or idea. Critical Play is a form of praxis; a design methodology that ties theory and practice together. A manifesto to live by, and a method of living it.”
