product|added Apr 18, 2009 0 Risk Facilitator by Sam Hill
The Risk Facilitator is one of several designs that explore the concept of 'Experience Value'. Specifically, how the pursuit of experience might be facilitated by taking risks. It is essentially a cardboard suit of armour: a form of pseudo-protection that communicates a sense of security - allowing the wearer to take risks they might otherwise feel incapable of. And in doing so - sense, feel and learn.
