Extra Fabrica Workshop 2014

Dezact announces the launch of a workshop series, commencing with Extra Fabrica Workshop in June/July 2014 in Taipei, Taiwan. 

Extra Fabrica, as part of Dezact’s exploration, aims to develop and test interactive design and fabrication scenarios in neglected or problematic urban interstices and ecologies, to adapt to existing constructs for new use and identity, to catalyze socio-cultural activities, and to engage behavior parallax between physical and virtual environments.

Interactive Prototypes - FireFly at Rhino-DAY - Guadalajara, Mexico

Date: April 3, 2014
Time: 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM

Cost: US $95

Course description:
Drag and Drop programing 

Using Grasshopper's visual programming interface, Firefly gives you the ability to create interactive programs and devices by manipulating elements graphically rather than by specifying them textually. It attempts to bridge the gap between the digital and physical worlds by simplifying the prototyping process for interactive objects. It combines a specialized set of components with a novel communication protocol (called the Firefly Firmata, or Firmware) which together enable real-time feedback between hardware devices such as the well-known Arduino microcontroller and the Rhino / Grasshopper modeling environment. All this happens instantly - so there's no compiling. Your program runs as you build it, making development and prototyping an extremely rapid process.

Optional: Arduino/FireFLY electronics kit: [Price 129 US$]
