Horrah for another great workshop at SPACE! While a proper round-up’s to come, with pictures and video, to show you all the cool circuits, lights, and bleeps we got going, meantime here’s a link to our fantastic tutor Iain Sharp’s blog post about it.
Catch up soon!
Share on FacebookEverything you ever wanted to know to build a circuit from scratch, but were afraid to ask!
January 23rd, 11am - 5pm
SPACE, 129 - 131 Mare Street Hackney London, E8 3RH.
Tutor Iain Sharp, a lecky pro, will guide you through the basics of how to get electricity to do what you want using a basic circuit that includes some pencil draw components.
The day will focus on how electronics work and will include experiments that demonstrate what different components do. We will use a breadboard to build the circuit, so a lot less soldering than in previous workshops!

Come and join Julie Freeman introducing the technicalities of her latest work in the next MzTEK P2P show ‘n’ tell.
Julie recently returned from ISEA (International Symposium of Electronic Arts) in Belfast at the end of August, where she showed the piece Specious Dialogue III.
Specious Dialogue III consists of a pair of movable, sculptural concrete forms that house wireless audio playback systems. Mounted on pairs of swivel castors the forms are designed to be played with – pushed, rolled, kicked and shoved around the exhibition space. They are physical audio curiosities with personality.
Julie will be discussing the story of the work from the initial commission through to version 3. She will talk about how she built it from sourcing and constructing the concrete forms, to the writing of the Max>/MSP patch as well as the development of the piece through the sound recording and editing. She will be accompanied by sound producer Dan Grigson (Grantby) who will give hands-on hints and tips on voice-over recording, editing and formating.

Specious Dialogue was commissioned by Cybersonica for Soundwaves 07 and has been shown in London, Luxembourg, Dublin and Limerick.

MzTEK is going to Watermans for the day to see the Power of 8 exhibition, and to talk with Anab Jain, the designer and filmmaker who conceived of, and initiated the project.
We welcome any women interested to come and join us for the morning at Watermans, and then we’ll go for a pub lunch after to chew the fat/cud, and generally have a nice afternoon.
The power of 8 is collaborative project, 8 people from different walks of life work together to build a public conversation about their individual aspirations for a desirable future.
For the past few years, Anab has worked on speculative projects around emerging technologies, to encourage debate on the different possible futures that may happen. As a designer, this genre of design fiction aims to impact our current day concepts by enabling us to think of directions in which our collective future is shaped
Check out powerof8.org.uk for more details on the project.
