Arduino and electronics workshop
A two-day intensive workshop introducing participants to the fascinating world of arduino microprocessors and electronics. Workshop conducted by Marko Timlin, who has been using arduinos for the last 20 years.
• Are you interested in making interactive art projects?
• Do you want to make a kinetic artwork?
• Would you like to control components like lights, switches or motors?
• Interested in using sensors in your projects?
• Would you like to connect the physical world with the digital world?
• Ever wondered how this magical thing called programming really works?
Then you are warmly welcome, this is the right workshop for YOU!
During this workshop participants will learn the basic principles of electronics and arduino microprocessors. Arduino is a popular open-source prototyping platform enabling users to create interactive artworks by connecting digital and electronic devices with computers and software.
The main goal of this workshop is to provide participants with inspiring knowledge enabling them to realize their own artistic projects. This workshop is open to anyone, previous knowledge of electronics or arduino is not required.
