| Abstract: | Climate change is arguably one of the most pressing issues humanity faces in the 21st century; To ensure a future for all, individual consumer behaviours must be reshaped towards the sustainable. Even so, this is already commonly known in our time, merely presenting this information to the public hence proves to be insufficient. By the opportunity provided by the client affiliated with the Escape climate crisis initiative, an attempt is therefore herewith documented to construct an educational escape room (EER) puzzle to alter the user’s stance towards climate action and persuade them to more ecological behaviour through playful engagement with the thematic. The solution devised is dubbed “Herz der Zukunft“ (German for “Heart of the future”), consisting of a pin code puzzle where 3 passwords extracted from climate change posters are to be inserted, serving to build the theme of oil consumption, and a heart reanimation puzzle to physically emulate a rescue as to emotionally engage the user. This installation is situated in a 1940s family travel caravan model dubbed “Airstream” whence Herz der Zukunft has been inserted into the closet along with the shelf situated to the top right of said closet. |
