Workshop:

Kids and family-friendly workshop! Join us in our treasure hunt for second-hand materials and make movable sculptures with repurposed materials and cardboard. The instructor will introduce you to the basic principles of automata and character design inspired by global warming to create continuous rotations as the input motions, such as moving a stick back and forth, intermittent walking and stopping, or raising their hands up and down.
