Workshops

The Lilypad Arduino is a programmable microcontroller specially designed for use in wearable tech and e-textiles projects.

Build an Atari Punk Console! The APC is a simple noisemaker circuit that is famous for its simplicity, elegance, and endless permutations.

In this workshop, we will introduce you to jQuery and BackboneJS, then build a slick and beautiful portfolio application that lives comfortably in both browser and mobile.

Ready to build an army of Android-controlled robots? Or automate parts of your home with your Android phone or tablet? If you're an experienced Arduino hacker but haven't dabbled in Android development, then this workshop is for you!

Take Processing to the next level. Using the free development environment Eclipse, we’ll add the more powerful capabilities of a full Java development environment to Processing.

Take your skills in Processing and use them to add interactive elements to websites or build mobile and iPhone apps.

This workshop will focus on using the Kinect to make your computer-attached projects see better.

In this workshop, we will be looking at techniques employed by artists who use Processing heavily in their respective practices, in an effort to gain new insight into the software and incorporate new ideas into our own work.

Learn Processing, a versatile tool frequently used by artists to create screen- and projection-based images and videos capable of responding to live data input (sensors, online information, etcetera).

In this workshop, we'll learn how sensors and work, examine different kinds of information they output, and make some simple Arduino-based applications that use that sensor data.

In this 2-part workshop, we'll learn the basics of Arduino.

Learn SuperCollider, an environment and programming language for real-time audio synthesis and algorithmic composition.

Learn a relatively easy way to create reactive video and audio works that respond to physical sensors such as knobs, switches, and infrared distance sensors all without having to write any code.

This workshop will focus on using the Kinect to make your computer-attached projects see better.

Learn how to control DMX devices straight through Arduino, with a little hardware hacking and some custom software libraries.

This hands-on workshop will teach the basics of robotic components, in theory, and in practice.

The workshop will introduce you to a variety of different sensors. Explain how they work, show the three different types of interfaces to work your sensor and prepare you for using any sensor you would like in the future.

On the afternoon of Saturday, June 16th, drop into the InterAccess Studio and build an Atari Punk Console with us.

Getting your project working in the lab is only the first step! We'll show you how to build it to survive and to look good while doing it.

Making the World Move Artfully explores the use of motors and other sources of movement within art-making.
