The overview
Terrible Ideas happen everywhere – from pottery to programming. This event is a challenge to create the most terrible, awful, brilliant ideas you can think of! From robot-driven tattoo guns and soleless Jandals to vegemite flavoured fudge and a camera that only takes a photo when you're blinking, join us in a celebration of failure, creativity, and stupid, terrible decisions.
