Introduction
Workshop planning
| Workshop day 1 | 13:00-17:00 |
|---|---|
| 13:00-13:15 | Walk in, welcome |
| 13:15-13:45 | Introduction & presentation (examples of possible inputs/outputs, wearable fabrication techniques, interactions) |
| 13:45-14:15 | Ideation, brainstorming, sketching |
| 14:15-15:00 | Electronics & Arduino programming crash course focusing on your wishes. If you know electronics/programming already: get started! |
| 15:00-15:15 | Break |
| 15:15-16:45 | Prototyping circuits and (parts of) the wearable work of art |
| 16:45-17:00 | Show & tell, clean up |
| Workshop day 2 | 13:00-17:00 |
|---|---|
| 13:00-13:15 | Walk in, welcome, what do you need to get started? |
| 13:15-15:00 | Working on bringing the wearable art to life: bringing electronics & shapes together, making it wearable, integrating the circuit |
| 15:00-15:15 | Break |
| 15:15-16:30 | Finalizing prototypes: testing, troubleshooting, finishing touches |
| 16:30-17:00 | Wearable art show! Documenting results & reflecting on the process, drinks |
| Learning goal | How |
|---|---|
| Designing wearable things in 3D | Prototyping with various available materials and 3D techniques |
| Making electronics wearable | Integrating electronic circuits, using portable power options |
| Programming basics in Arduino IDE | Arduino IDE crash course - walkthrough for beginners |
| Basics of electronics | ‘Sketching in hardware’: prototyping electronics and learning by doing, trying out different inputs/outputs or deep diving into one |
End of day 1 goals:
- A clear idea for a wearable
- Parts of the wearable without electronics done, shape tests and prototypes
- Working programmed electronics (doesn’t have to be wireless, soldered or final yet, just a first working iteration)
End of day 2 goals:
- Working electronics, soldered & battery-powered
- Electronics and design coming together in a wearable piece of art
