• Uncover the unexpected activities,
 intrusions, and interactions that ultimately
 impact decision making, use and
 performance
                                                                   INITIAL HYPOTHESIS
• Understand why, not simply what

• Understand the contexts (processes) in
 which people live and work.

• Subjects and their actions are viewed as
 interdependent rather than independent
 or autonomous units                                          PATTERNS

• Relational ties (linkages) between
 subjects are channels for resource flow
 (either material or nonmaterial)
                                                OBSERVATION

• Network models focusing on individuals
 view the network structural environment
 as providing opportunities for or
 constraints on individual action

Snacks as badge

A snack is more than food; it represents:
 - Childhood memories
 - Quality of parenting
 - Regional affinity
 - Expressions of regional or subgroup identity.

The brand itself is equally symbolically charged
 - Old Bay = eastern rust-belt nostalgia
 - Guys = a sense of locality Expressions of regional or subgroup identity.


Design ad collateral, packaging and products to enhance these symbolic cues
and you do what Coke did.
Symbolism

Method of Expression
 - Expressions of skill
 - Expressions of idealized parenthood

Cultural Change
 - The "democritization of food"
     ∙ Sweetbreads
     ∙ Haute cuisine and working class
 - Foodie culture

Signal/Signifier
 - "Coke" = "soft drink" in many parts of the South
 - Linguistic and symbolic cultural/regional
    holdings
Design

Tying it to Purpose
 - If a snack represents an idea, how does it shape design and function?
 - Snacks do more than hold you over, they alter time.
 - Snacks are to meals what the DVR is to TV programming

Design devoid of meaning will kill an idea
 - Design for a function
 - Design for context
    ∙ On-the-go
    ∙ Frugal suburbia
    ∙ Location/event of consumption
 - Packaging as a tool

Design as catalyst
 - Incremental sales
 - Shifting the "norm"

            New messaging opportunities

               Partnership opportunities

           Accelerated incremental sales

Opportunities to create and control new flavor profiles

    Opportunities to breath life into old products.
