WHAT’S UP Physical NETbots – Athens Digital Arts Festival

events

Theoretically, this workshop addressed to those who have concerns about critical Interfaces, new media cultural politics and non-conformism towards the Internet data management, especially tracking Web site location and Web site analysis, design homogenization and GUI standards.

Practically, focuses on basic circuit development, welding and the ensamble of BEAM robotics –a type of stands for Biology, Electronics, Aesthetics, and Mechanics. These physical NETBots work by taking the human body capacitance as input, through conductive material, and interacts with another graphical interface on capacitive surfaces like touch-screens.

Free admission, please note limited spaces available.
