MENSCHH LAB · THE METHOD

ACROSS ALL FIELDS

LAB

Where questions become things.

Lab is not a fifth field and not a service. It is how the four fields are worked: a question is taken apart until it becomes an object, or until it becomes a better question.

What should this feel like? How should it behave?

THE METHOD

QUESTION → OBJECT

  1. 01QUESTIONWhat should this feel like? How should it behave?
  2. 02RESEARCHWhere the question has been answered badly before.
  3. 03EXPERIMENTThe smallest test that could prove it.
  4. 04MATERIALWhat the material wants to do with it.
  5. 05PROTOTYPEA form that can be argued with.
  6. 06TESTIn a room, in a hand, on a morning.
  7. 07OBJECTWhat is left when the question is answered.
