Abstract
The proposed workshop problematises the concept of Health to speculate on the foundation of digital health promotion. This research is a critical knowledge-making project which seeks to uncover how AI mobile technologies mediate our individual and collective processes of health management. The research adopts a participatory speculative design to co-create solutions. The participant workshop is developed to build on previous research findings of definitions of the Good Life and embedded biases. The workshop simulates the algorithmic development design stage to speculatively co-design a participant-led agenda. The workshop is designed to be completed within 45 minutes and is divided into two parts. The first half will begin with a brief presentation of the research so far: How the Good Life is collectively defined, and what entrenched biases are experienced within our definitions will be surveyed. Participants are asked to provide feedback on the findings in an open and respectful dialogue. The second half of the workshop asks participants about the needs within a health promotion digital design. Here participants are empowered to create the structure of mobile application design through collective decision making. Together we will consider questions such as: What does a health design need to offer? What is important to include in the design? What can a mobile AI technology not provide? The final five minutes will include a summary of the findings to demonstrate the collective work created within the session, and an invitation to follow the research as it progresses.
