Explore shared manufacturing and get involved in our hands-on workshop sessions

Mon, May 18 13:00 – 15:30 (150m) Maker Community Table Workshop ·Wissenschaft & Technologie

Description

How can we create beautiful hardware that supports local resilience and techno-social synergies within shared manufacturing spaces espousing open innovation and community building? Let us rethink open innovation with New European Bauhaus values by merging maker practices, design, engineering, crafts and artistic intervention to co-produce sustainable products for society and a better future.

The sessions are brought by the EU project LAUDS Factories represented by TU Berlin (coordinator). Join our 75min hands-on workshops @ Maker Community Table from the LAUDS.eu project, our subproject teams Edible Cities and Windkit, and in cooperation with OpenFootwear:
