Bodystorming is a technique sometimes used in interaction design or as a creativity technique.

It is the idea is to imagine what it would be like if the product existed, and act as though it exists, ideally in the place it would be used. Its going through an idea with improvised artifacts and physical activities to envision a solution.

[edit] Opinions on this method

The proponents of this idea like to point out the fact that you get up and move, trying things out with your own body, rather than just sitting around a mee a proper user-centered method, since it is more often carried out by the designers than the users of the final product.It is a table for writing all kind of good notes.
