Stink or swim?! OBX workshop
10 May @ 10:00 am – 3:00 pm
Wondering if it’s a good day to take a dip in the sea? Is it time to stink or swim?!
Join OBX for a day-long collaborative community workshop to make sculptures that move according to the sea pollution levels. These playful automata models will use sea quality data to help you know if it’s swimming day or not and are a community-driven response to the sewage dumping crisis. Think weather houses, but with data!
Whether you’re passionate about coding and electronics or you love crafting and collage, this workshop is for everyone! All you need is your creativity and a willingness to collaborate. OBX staff will be on hand to help you realise your ideas.
The Stink or Swim?! workshop will be run by OBX (Hastings Commons’ tech-hub) in partnership with local community tech company Thingitude. The workshop is run alongside the AutomataFest, and we will share the models we make at the AutomataFest open day on 11th May.
