Welcome to the SEEKING PLAY Podcast, where your hosts, Dr. Jane Hession and Ronan Healy, explore how engaging in play and thinking playfully, are connected to childhood flourishing and organisational innovation. Recall the natural playfulness of children – their boundless curiosity, unbridled creativity, and fearless embrace of new experiences. While these playful qualities are vital for children to flourish, have we overlooked the importance of these attributes in our adult workforce? Jane and Ronan are keen to explore!How Might We 経済学

  • Troy Innocent - Future Play Lab
    2025/03/12
    Some people see a city as streets, buildings, and infrastructure. Troy Innocent sees it as a playground.A BMX-riding, LEGO-city-building, world-maker from childhood, Troy never stopped playing. But instead of keeping it to himself, he turned his playful instinct into The Future Play Lab.At RMIT, Troy is transforming how people interact with public spaces through speculative design, urban play, Indigenous knowledge and augmented reality experiences like 64 Ways of Being. From risky play in childhood to playful interventions in cityscapes, Troy and The Future Play Lab are proving that play isn’t just fun; it’s how we reimagine the world. ______________________Hello there!We’re Dr. Jane Hession and Ronan Healy.

Please say hello, if you would like to bring the LEGO method to your organisation.We also do in-person training across Ireland and the UK⁠ ⁠www.howmightwe.design/lego-serious-play-ireland⁠⁠ ______________________Troy who? Dr Innocent (he/they) is an urban play scholar, artist, game maker and Director of the future play lab at RMIT University in Narrm Melbourne. The lab develops socially engaged and site-responsive urban play connecting experimental game design, public space, posthuman methods, and creative technologies. Working with the city as a material, their approach to reworlding develops posthuman methods that reimagine, reconfigure and reconnect with the world. This involves transdisciplinary practices across design, sculpture, animation, sound, light and installation using methods of multiplatform storytelling that connect objects with their environment to build speculative worlds that playfully defamiliarise and disrupt urban life.Troy has 25 years of experience in gallery-based exhibitions, symposia and site-specific projects, developing augmented reality games that blend physical objects with digital interfaces to reimagine everyday urban environments in playful ways, situating his work in Aarhus, Melbourne, Bristol, Barcelona, Istanbul, Ogaki, Sydney, Tampere and Hong Kong. They are the creator of 64 Ways of Being, an urban adventure platform combining audio walks and mixed realities to situate players in new experiences of place.Contact DetailsEmailtroy.innocent@rmit.edu.auLinkedin https://www.linkedin.com/in/troy-innocent/ Website http://futureplaylab.io Twitter @playablemelbAdditional Resources https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernie_De_Koven https://direct.mit.edu/books/monograph/2338/Critical-PlayRadical-Game-Design https://www.dukeupress.edu/staying-with-the-trouble https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carolyn_Briggs https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/Making-the-Case-for-Playful-Learning-Ilgaz-Hassinger-Das/142f7fb1e64d444e053eda974860ac7711127de7 Timestamps(0:00) - Dr. Troy Innocent(2:15) - Troy’s Childhood and Early Play Experiences(5:03) - Risky Play: How It Shapes Identity(6:58) - Advice to Younger Self: Balancing Playfulness and Seriousness(9:50) - The Role of Intuition in Play and Creativity(13:19) - Striking a Balance Between Seriousness and Playfulness at Work(18:04) - Adult Playfulness: Breaking Clichés and Misconceptions(24:45) - How Urban Play Inspires New Ways of Thinking About the Future(29:25) - Hopeful Play: A Tool for Social and Ecological Change(35:01) - Exploring Melbourne’s Hidden Histories Through Play and AR(39:41) - 64 Ways of Being: Augmented Reality and Storytelling(42:10) - Lego Build: How Troy’s Work Helps People See the World Differently(47:00) - Playlabs as a Catalyst for Change in Academia(50:34) - Entangling People in Creative Ways of Thinking

  • Katrin Heimann - Micro-Phenomenology & Play
    2025/02/18
    Hello there!We’re Dr. Jane Hession and Ronan Healy. We’re a husband and wife team and co-founders of the service design studio How Might We - www.howmightwe.design We're passionate about Play and provide online, in-house training in the LEGO Serious Play method to teams worldwide. We’re also training across Ireland and the UK www.howmightwe.design/lego-serious-play-ireland IntroductionHave you ever visited a museum and felt like you had to tiptoe around, afraid to touch anything? Ever felt like education was about memorising facts rather than genuinely exploring ideas? Ever thought play was something you left behind in childhood when, in reality, it should stay with you into adulthood? Well, you’re not alone.Dr. Katrin Heimann joins us to explore play as an act of listening, care, and creative reconstruction. As a researcher and educator, Katrin challenges the sometimes rigid structures of academia and museums, advocating for spaces that foster agency, interaction, and playfulness. From unpacking the emotional layers of learning to reimagining institutions as places of joy and experimentation, Katrin chats about why play is personal and political.___________________LEGO Alert!Around the 42-minute mark, Katrin answers a question using LEGO.Katrin who?Katrin Heimann is trained in philosophy and cognitive neuroscience and has specialised in exploring the richness of humans' subjective experience using qualitative methods. She is one of the leading experts in the interview and analysis technique of micro-phenomenology, with which she has investigated an extensive range of experiences, especially those related to art, creativity, play, and learning. Currently, she holds the position of Assistant Professor at the Center for Educational Development at Aarhus University, where she researches and develops facilitation tools and resources for engaging and inclusive classrooms within academia. Katrin’s Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) has led her to understand the value of designing neuroinclusive learning environments, and she is working on the project Developing Teacher Education for the Neuroinclusive University.Contact DetailsEmailkatrinheimann@au.dk Researchhttps://www.au.dk/en/katrinheimann@au.dk How Playfulness Motivates: Putative Looping Effects of Autonomy and Surprise Revealed by Micro-Phenomenological Investigationshttps://pure.au.dk/portal/en/publications/how-playfulness-motivates-putative-looping-effects-of-autonomy-anDeveloping Teacher Education for the Neuroinclusive Universityhttps://pure.au.dk/portal/en/projects/developing-teacher-education-for-the-neuroinclusive-universityBookPracticing Embodied Thinking in Research and Learninghttps://www.routledge.com/Practicing-Embodied-Thinking-in-Research-and-Learning/Schoeller-Thorgeirsdottir-Walkerden/p/book/9781032498720?srsltid=AfmBOoqkYjiEmlKoBDH8tQwPry_WE5PV6QiVJFPpTeUxqODJg6QH1XaJ Additional Resources https://www.amazon.co.uk/Courage-Teach-Exploring-Landscape-Anniversary/dp/0787996866https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell_hooks https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poets/audre-lorde https://www.guernicamag.com/sara-ahmed-the-personal-is-institutional/ (0:00) - Introduction and Welcome(2:22) - Katherine’s Childhood and Early Play Experiences(6:58) - Early Career Reflections and Advice to Younger Self(9:50) - Balancing Seriousness and Playfulness in Work(12:38) - Defining Adult Playfulness and Its Role in Engagement(18:45) - The Interplay Between Humans and Non-Humans in Play(29:38) - Research Study: “Ducks in a Box” - Exploring Playful vs. Non-Playful Conditions(39:02) - The Playful Academic: Introducing a Treasure Box for Researchers(42:14) - Lego Build 1: What Inspires Katherine About Her Work?(46:59) - How Her Work Helps People Think and Feel Differently(48:35) - Final Reflections: Play as the Best Way of Being

  • Sarah Kuhn - Thinking With Things
    2025/01/13

    Ever count using your fingers as an adult? Ever struggle to articulate an idea until you sketch it out on a whiteboard? Ever discuss 'stakeholder relationships' during lunch by sliding around the table condiments? Ever moved Lego objects around to scenario test project implementation? Ever considered how ‘playing around’ with objects helps you ‘play around’ with ideas?

    Maybe we’ve overlooked that these everyday gestures highlight our fundamental human tendency to think with our body and think with things.

    If your organisation is making decisions that affect corporate budgets in the multi-millions and multi-billions, wouldn't 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴 make sense?

    And if we spend roughly 13 years in primary and secondary schooling (plus more years in college), wouldn't 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴 make sense?

    Well, it does to Sarah Kuhn, who wrote the wonderful book 𝘛𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘴𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘓𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘛𝘩𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩 𝘛𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘪𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘐𝘯𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯. 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘊𝘢𝘴𝘦 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘞𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴.

    By shining a light on the power of hands-on, embodied engagement, Sarah shows us how to harness our innate capacity for physical thinking in the classroom so students engage in creative learning that sticks.
