As part of our 10-days long showcase at B&D Studios during Design Event‘s Northern Design Festival, Teresa Almeida and Lalya Gaye will be holding a free, hands-on, DIY creative technologies workshop on 12th October at B&D, where you are invited to join us and explore the intersection of electronics, design and traditional craft, during one afternoon.
We are having a showcase called A Cup of Attaya at B&D Studios in Newcastle, as part of the 2013 Northern Design Festival (this year’s theme is Create:Digital).
During ten days (from 10-19 October), we will inhabit the space of B&D Studios, redecorate it with interactive installations, demos of work-in-progress, and have a chill-out salon area where we’ll welcome visitors with a nice cup of West-African Attaya tea and traditional Swedish cookies (Why, you ask? Because they’re tasty! Yum yum yum).
Remember Shift, the internship programme for young creative we’re involved in? There was an open day the other day at Studio Precept the other day, and Attaya took part in it.
Fun day teaching urban interaction design, physical computing and iterative prototyping at the Shift internship programme today!
A little bit of projection mapping… a little bit of Arduino… a fair amount of overview on seminal projects and relevant design methods… and a lot of iterative prototyping and group projects(-ing)!
Attaya was just in Geneva, Switzerland, for the annual Mapping Festival!
Mapping Festival is an annual digital media arts festival promoting “visual, audio and deviant electronics”. Or in short: digital visual arts and VJ culture. This is the 9th edition of the festival. It was about time we go check it out!
