  1. Black Mirror Brainstorms (Aaron Lewis) — In light of the latest FB scandal, here’s my proposal for replacing Design Sprints: “Black Mirror Brainstorms.” A workshop in which you create a Black Mirror episode. The plot must revolve around misuse of your team’s product. See Casey Fiesler’s Black Mirror, Light Mirror, which I’ve linked to before on 4SL.
