Public Library Innovation Exchange (PLIX)

Re-envision (and prototype) the future of dining and well-being in outer-space!

For our March workshop, PLIX will host a remix of our <a href="https://plix.media.mit.edu/activities/scratch-microbit" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer"></a><a href="https://plix.media.mit.edu/activities/space-food" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Space Food activity</a>.Join us Thursday, March 17th, from 12:00-1:00PM ET to prototype the future of dining in outer-space environments. This workshop will focus on "Recreating Rituals" — or re-envisioning what your favorite on-Earth rituals around food (preparing, dining, plating, sharing, etc.) look like in a zero-gravity environment. We’ll use this hour for hands-on co-tinkering, working with fellow members of the PLIX community to make projects. No previous experience is necessary! You'll come away with concrete ideas for creative STEAM learning programming to run with your patrons. This workshop will be held via Zoom, but is hands-on! Come prepared to create your own Space Food project! To participate, you'll need various materials to prototype your invention/tool. We suggest a mix of standard craft material, as we well as some recycled packaging/waste. As preparation, please review the <a href="https://plix.media.mit.edu/activities/space-food" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">activity write-up</a>, including the Zine. See you soon! ⚡~* The PLIX Team * ~
