Campaign research for FMP -Chairobics -Comic/sport relief -Installations -Games to play when bored (e.g. in the office)

Photoshop Tennis
One player starts to draw a picture within Photoshop (or equivalent) which subsequent players must add to. The picture makes its way around the office (the more people, the better) before making it back to the originator.

They were also good ideas of experiments i could do for my project that could help me to develop my work.
