KITE educatie – PROJECTEN EN LESSEN OVER KUNST EN TECHNOLOGIE

Faire: Delft

Maker: KITE educatie

Home: Zuid Holland, Nederland

KITE educatie laat kinderen experimenteren met nieuwe technologieën en fantaseren over maatschappelijke toepassingen hiervan. Bij KITE leer je denken in toepassingen, waardoor technische componenten net als verf, papier en een schaar onderdeel worden van een creatieproces. Technologie is geen doel, het is een middel. Het is maakbaar en vooral menselijk. KITE organiseert het educatie-programma bij Highlight Delft. Samen met de leerlingen filosoferen we en bouwen we een eigen wereld van karton en sensoren. Daarop laten we onze eigen verbeelding los door live te animeren op de iPads, die geprojecteerd worden op die nieuwe, kartonnen wereld. Tijdens de MakerFaire willen we de werkwijze van KITE laten zien, maar vooral zelf laten ervaren in een korte workshop van 1 uur.

pdmcbride.com chandeliers and lamps

Faire: Pioneer Valley

Maker: Dave McBride

Home: Massachusetts, United States

I make chandeliers, lamps and other unusual lighting objects using metal, wood and resin. Many of the materials I use are discarded or used and I find repurposing shapes and objects into new uses to be great fun for me and to viewers. Persistent ideas that I work with are histories of objects and continuance of space through representations of separation and the impermanence of things. I especially like the challenges and new ideas that unknown flaws of used or recycled parts bring to the work, as these require creative solutions that only seem to come up when I think I have failed.

The Electronic Jug Band

Faire: Rome

Maker: Rick MacDonald

 

An exhibit showing how to use the latest low cost microcontroller and sensor technologies to create DIY electronic music instruments. The design and building of such instruments is a hands-on learning experience in both maker electronics and music concepts. The idea is similar to the creation of a Jug Band in the mid 1900s where individuals used household materials to create their instruments and then played them together to make music. In this case however the use of modern electronics provides many more possibilities and a much larger scope for creativity.

3D-Printed Electric Marble Mazes

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: Gualala Gadget

Home: California, United States

We have a variety of battery-powered 3D printed marble machines that we'd like to exhibit. Each model is 3D printed using PLA plastic on consumer FDM printers. This takes anywhere from six to fifteen hours, depending on each model's size and complexity. A model is made from two to seven PLA parts, which are inspected and cleaned of any residual plastic that's a byproduct of the printing process. (None of the models require support material, which simplifies the cleaning process). Once the PLA parts are prepared they, along with the electric parts are assembled into complete models. There's no painting — the plastic is the color it appears. The models are designed in Blender. They use a variety of different mechanisms to lift the marbles.
