Art and science education.

Robotics as a way of making art. Participants design, build and program small robots, learning how motors, sensors and microcontrollers work and how to get from a rough idea to a working prototype. Here a robot is a character and a statement as much as a machine: it has a shape, a way of moving and a way of reacting. Teams of three work around a theme such as ecology, music, the body or the city.

A course on using code as an artistic material. Participants write short programs that generate images, motion and sound, and learn the basics of programming along the way: variables, loops, randomness, interaction. Each person builds a small series of generative works of their own.

A workshop on working with neural networks as an artistic tool. Participants generate images, text and sound, learn how these models are trained and where they go wrong, and build their own working method. Each person makes a work with AI.

A field workshop on making maps of the place where we live. Participants walk a district, record its sounds, talk to residents and collect open data, then put it all on one map. We look at how maps are made, what they show and what they leave out.

A workshop on building an instrument and reading what it measures. Participants assemble an air-quality sensor, take measurements around the neighbourhood and analyse the data together, learning the basics of electronics, microcontrollers and data analysis.
