FROM HOBBY TO RESEARCH
BUILD IT.
THEN TELL
THE STORY.
LEGO is part of my life as an adult fan and builder. It also connects with a question in my research: how can interactive technology support imagination and creative play?
BricksTory, developed with Yohei Murakami, brings hands-on brick building together with AI-generated storytelling. It explores ways to help children discover ideas and reinterpret what they have made.

From a build to a storybook
The extended BricksTory adds storybook compilation and explores how unexpected AI interpretations can prompt new ideas. The project reports informal observations; it is an exploration of creative support.
