From Digital to Dirty

Breaking Functional Fixedness Through Play

February 20, 2026
5:00-6:30 p.m. CST

In this playful, hands on session, Cybility founder Michala Liavaag shares her own level 3 journey of how moving from polished digital designs to “dirty” pen and paper prototypes transformed her approach. You’ll see her prototyping kit in action, use the Protoscope™ to turn an everyday object into a mechanic, and leave with a play tested prototype and a repeatable design method.

I Love Cards is an online design platform built specifically for creators who use card decks in workshops, training, and facilitation. Rather than wrestling with general design tools, users can easily build custom card decks with drag‑and‑drop visuals, flexible templates, and instant print‑ready exports—all without technical headaches like bleeds or margins. The platform lets you iterate quickly, share and sell decks, and even showcase interactive cards during presentations, making it a powerful tool for designers who want to bring structured play and meaningful interaction into their learning experiences.
