Three unique personalities were developed for each of the birds by library staff. One was written by students from a local school; a second gives a tour of the grounds; a third gives some of the library&#8217;s powerful history &#8211; and features photographs texted directly to the participant&#8217;s phone. A local illustrator drew the three friendly birds. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Outcomes<\/strong>: place activation for economic development; outdoor signs to start the experience; bringing a sculpture or mural to life with personality and dialog.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Images <mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color

The virtual activity was integrated with four stops on the StoryWalk and involved taking pictures of shapes in their surroundings and answering trivia questions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Images <mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-cyan-bluish-gray-color\">(click-to-expand):<\/mark><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-4 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Spooner-Poster-Recover.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"301\" height=\"301\" data-id=\"2741\" src=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Spooner-Flyer-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2741\" srcset=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Spooner-Flyer-1.png 301w, https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Spooner-Flyer-1-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 301px) 100vw, 301px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Copy-of-ME5d4920eec5a6e6c76274002250f80984.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"301\" height=\"301\" data-id=\"2742\" src=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Spooner-Handicap-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2742\" srcset=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Spooner-Handicap-1.png 301w, https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Spooner-Handicap-1-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 301px) 100vw, 301px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/spoons.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"301\" data-id=\"2743\" src=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Spooner-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2743\" srcset=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Spooner-1.png 300w, https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Spooner-1-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Copy-of-ME46b739531cab9852a09b1ba15ea07aee.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"301\" height=\"301\" data-id=\"2740\" src=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Spooner-Clock-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2740\" srcset=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Spooner-Clock-1.png 301w, https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Spooner-Clock-1-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 301px) 100vw, 301px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/all-posters.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"301\" height=\"301\" data-id=\"2739\" src=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Spooner-Posters-2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2739\" srcset=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Spooner-Posters-2.png 301w, https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Spooner-Posters-2-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 301px) 100vw, 301px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Design tactics and tools<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-purple-color\"><a href=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/ebow\/tactics-in-brief\/#outdoor-signs\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"2471\">printed flyers<\/a> to start the experience<\/mark> &#8211; moving from physical to digital; tapping into attention flows of public space<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>augmenting an existing bike tour<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><em>related tools:<\/em> automated <a href=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/ebow\/tools-tech-services\/#texting\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"2236\">texting<\/a>, physical signs, QR codes<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Recipe to make your own<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Try our recipe for &#8220;I Spy Photo Collecting&#8221; (<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/EBOW_Recipe_Book-v1b.pdf#page=12\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/EBOW_Recipe_Book-v1.pdf#page=9\">jump to PDF page<\/a><\/span> in our <a href=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/ebow\/recipe-book\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"2998\">recipe book<\/a>).

Suburban community library with one branch. <em>Joined in the fall of 2022<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Overview:<\/strong> This box was created to be an FAQ style of interaction for people seeking common information at the circulation desk, perhaps to be used when there may not be a librarian immediately available to answer a common question. The blue is eye-catching and the box feels almost like a stage for the screen. We were drawn in, and found ourselves asking, \u201cWhat can you do here?\u201d In other words, the object itself was a hook for our attention. Inside is a repurposed laptop with touchscreen capabilities. Buttons on the screen allow patrons to explore branching stories (e.g., choose-your-own-adventure), or to select their interests. The physical structure is mostly cardboard with about $15 worth of wallpaper, and signage printed in the library. (Hurrah for cardboard prototyping!) The narrative is controlled with ordinary Google Slides using a little fancy hot-linking. The whole thing is positioned next to the front desk at the branch library.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Images <mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-cyan-bluish-gray-color\">(click-to-expand):<\/mark><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-6 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Cardboard_Stand-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"301\" height=\"301\" data-id=\"2795\" src=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Montclair-Build-1-.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2795\" srcset=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Montclair-Build-1-.png 301w, https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Montclair-Build-1--150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 301px) 100vw, 301px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Laptop-on-Stand-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"301\" height=\"301\" data-id=\"2797\" src=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Montclair-Build-2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2797\" srcset=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Montclair-Build-2.png 301w, https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Montclair-Build-2-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 301px) 100vw, 301px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Unfinished-Box-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"301\" height=\"301\" data-id=\"2798\" src=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Montclair-Build-3.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2798\" srcset=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Montclair-Build-3.png 301w, https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Montclair-Build-3-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 301px) 100vw, 301px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Finished-Box-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"301\" height=\"301\" data-id=\"2794\" src=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Montclair-Build-4.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2794\" srcset=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Montclair-Build-4.png 301w, https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Montclair-Build-4-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 301px) 100vw, 301px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Patron-with-Box-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"301\" height=\"301\" data-id=\"2796\" src=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Montclair-Patron.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2796\" srcset=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Montclair-Patron.png 301w, https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Montclair-Patron-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 301px) 100vw, 301px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Useful links<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hivemechanic.org\/2023\/08\/15\/blue-box-low-cost-storytelling-box\/\">https:\/\/www.hivemechanic.org\/2023\/08\/15\/blue-box-low-cost-storytelling-box\/<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/164yUhuEu90NOZfhErkaxqJAaAG6G4FuP\/view?usp=sharing\">Short Demo of Montclair Box<\/a>&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/1SwMtaHYgjRXPVs9fs4jodcwdH1qfBFUf\/view?usp=sharing\">Long Demo of Montclair box<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Recipe to make your own<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Try our recipe for &#8220;Storytelling Box with Touchscreen&#8221; (<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/EBOW_Recipe_Book-v1b.pdf#page=18\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/EBOW_Recipe_Book-v1.pdf#page=11\">jump to PDF page<\/a><\/span> in our <a href=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/ebow\/recipe-book\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"2998\">recipe book<\/a>).

Each location of the scavenger hunt was chosen through collaboration with library staff who asked participating locations to display a sign that prompted the text-based scavenger hunt. A puppet from the library, Dogwood the Cat, is featured as the host of the scavenger hunt on each sign and is the personality for the text message interactions.

The project helped to bring to light stories associated with historic points of interest, architectural curiosities, and local trivia through a text and image guided tour through the home of South Dakota State University. Despite being the town\u2019s namesake very few residents of Brookings, including the creators of this project, knew the story behind the wooden-legged town founder but the local brewery did have some knowledge of this character and developed a brand around the historic figure. The process not only helped illuminate previously obscured local history, but strengthened local ties with library staff through their collaboration with the popular brewery in using their cartoon logo of Wilmot Brookings throughout the tour as a mascot.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Images <mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-cyan-bluish-gray-color\">(click-to-expand):<\/mark><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default wp-block-gallery-10 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/brookings_teamthumb.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"359\" data-id=\"3060\" src=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/brookings_teamthumb.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3060\" srcset=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/brookings_teamthumb.jpg 640w, https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/brookings_teamthumb-300x168.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium\"><a href=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/explorer_thumb2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" data-id=\"3068\" src=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/explorer_thumb2-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3068\" srcset=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/explorer_thumb2-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/explorer_thumb2.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Quote(s) from interviews:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI have not done coding.

Bernice\u2019s persona for the walking tour was developed by library staff as a precocious \u201croaring twenties\u201d flapper, and after loose dialogue was written by the staff ChatGPT was employed to rewrite this dialogue in the voice of the period. Bernice\u2019s family history provides a series of twists and turns that provide a compelling narrative throughout the tour, which is accompanied by a rich set of personal photos from the Buck family. The narrative is centered around this influential local family, whose rich history provides opportunities to illuminate historic gems and oddities specific to Winchester, such as a unique photograph of Al Capone taken in town as well as the former gangsters connection to local baseball.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Images <mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-cyan-bluish-gray-color\">(click-to-expand):<\/mark><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-13 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/shool_kids_and_anna-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"301\" height=\"301\" data-id=\"2752\" src=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Winchester-School.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2752\" srcset=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Winchester-School.png 301w, https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Winchester-School-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 301px) 100vw, 301px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/1920-1930_bernice_buck_with_friends_by_car_hm-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"301\" height=\"301\" data-id=\"2753\" src=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Winchester-Trio.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2753\" srcset=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Winchester-Trio.png 301w, https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Winchester-Trio-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 301px) 100vw, 301px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/lakes_and_resorts_of_the_northwest_1914_cnw_passenger_rail_with_routes-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"301\" height=\"301\" data-id=\"2751\" src=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Winchester-Map.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2751\" srcset=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Winchester-Map.png 301w, https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Winchester-Map-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 301px) 100vw, 301px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>&lt;&lt; Back to <a href=\"#menu\">top of page<\/a><\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Want more?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are more project ideas in the full <a href=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/ebow\/recipe-book\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"2998\">recipe book<\/a>, and tool-based ideas in our <a href=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/ebow\/tool-and-tactic-index\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"2455\">tools and tactics<\/a> area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;ve already made something cool or want to let us know of something we should add, please <a href=\"https:\/\/playfulcity.net\/go\/connect\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"2111\">contact us<\/a>!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&lt;&lt; Back to Tasting Menu of EBOW projects Below are details and photos for several featured creations, or try our &#8220;tasting menu&#8221; for a simplified overview.
