Miss Despoina’s Hackspace Hobart - http://sistero.org/mdhhh/
presents our 2nd workshop 2010 - 17 April.
Saturday 10:00 - 16:00 @ Moonah Arts Centre 65 Hopkins St, Moonah
TAS 7009
More info @
http://www.sistero.org/mdhhh/index.php?/project/e-waste-hardware---opening-up-the-hood/
Most of us work with computers one way or another processing
programmes
and surfing the net, but how often does someone not familiar with
computers look inside the case and touch things?
After we pull apart the old computer hardware and name it, what then?
This workshop is about making accessories with old computer
electronics,
mobile phones, tape recorders, even kitchen appliances.
Transform these old favourites into trinkets, wearables and all the
while
learn about computer or machine hardware. And learn basic soldering
techniques too!
Hardware is a mystery, may seem difficult but is actually a lot of
fun.
While involved in hand-on demolition and reconstruction learn about
masters and slaves, the difference between memory and storage and the
components of your computer.
Workshop involves:
Opening the guts (taking stuff apart naming it)
Fishing for components (choosing trinkets)
Making a wearable, (and even functioning), accessory
Things to bring:
An object to dismantle (and re-incarnate)
A piece of clothing to modify (optional)
Tools eg drills, screwdrivers, pliers (some will be provided)
