Workshop Building Space Props! 11+25 November!

Workshop: Building space props !!

On Wednesday 11 and 25 November (19:00–21:00) we will get to work with discarded electronics at MaakPlaats Oldambt, guided by artist Igor Bobeldijk. In this workshop we turn WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) into speculative gadgets. Think of props from science fiction films: a new kind of button, for example, or a little spy car made from bits of plastic. We use microcontrollers (Arduino / micro:bit) to control LEDs, small motors and so on. We will be soldering, programming and tinkering. Feel free to bring your own discarded devices (WEEE)!

Igor Bobeldijk (1992) is a multidisciplinary visual artist working with technology. He is interested in how we used to imagine the possibilities of technology. This ‘nostalgia for the future’ is the common thread running through his exploratory and experimental work.
