Maker Faire Bay Area 2025

Collective Bloom presented by CADRE Student Org from SJSU

The CADRE Student Organization and the CADRE Laboratory for New Digital Media are excited to present a collection of digital media projects headlined by “ Collective Bloom,” an interactive projection mapped artwork created by a team of student artists working in both 2D and 3D digital art mediums. Collective Bloom Each flower, like animals and humans, carries its unique beauty and meaning. This project invited artists to create their unique flowers, a reflection of their style and identity. The origin, bloom time, and lifespan of these flowers are not important. What matters is the powerful message they convey: that everyone possesses their natural charm. This visual celebration is not complete without the audience, who are invited to admire the beauty of the flowers and the diverse stories and personalities they represent. CADRE S.O. Mosaic Through the collaboration of the organization members, the light boxes have been brought back to Maker Faire with a new design! Composed of 10 sections of laser cut artwork that spells out the organization's name, the light boxes are illuminated with a shifting color sequence. Video Arcade Cabinet The Game Development Club at SJSU will be bringing new games and prototypes presented on a custom-built, classic arcade cabinet. They make games with the University and with the community. https://sjsugamedev.com/ Electronic Sculpture and DMA Presentations Digital Media Art BFA students from CADRE Laboratory for New Media will also present a collection of student projects.
