Arduino paper automaton workshop
hardhack hands on workshop
In this workshop, participants will build a small cutesy paper automaton using an arduino board, motors, some electronic components and cardboard, and control it using processing. The goal here (besides having fun) is to delve quickly into topics that can seem quite alienating at first, depending on where you are coming from: programming, electronics, paper (those razor blades are sharp), design, mechanics.
