This workshop offers an introduction to AI vision development, giving a concise overview of the possibilities this field opens up for designers.
It is aimed at designers, students, developers, and tech enthusiasts interested in exploring the basics of AI vision development using microcontrollers.
No coding experience is required to take part in this workshop.
We will not be covering online chat AI frameworks or agent creators.
Instead, you will see Sensecraft in action, and discover how it could be integrated into everyday objects like a lamp, a chair, even a kitchen.
Join us for a transformative journey into the world of industrial hemp – a plant as ancient as it is forward-looking.
This interactive workshop goes beyond material exploration: it opens the door to a growing global community of innovators, designers, and activists who are redefining sustainability through hemp. You’ll hear directly from international pioneers – from lawyers to sculptors to interior designers – about their unique relationships with the plant and its potential to regenerate not only materials, but entire industries.
This workshop explorea how design can actively support biodiversity by creating sculptural objects that encourage spontaneous colonisation.
It introduces to the concept of bioreceptive design, inviting participants to reflect on slow colonisation processes in biodesign. They will create a Minimum Viable Ecosystem by shaping essential configurations for a small bio-supportive system, creating a unique piece of design for targeted living organisms. The workshop combines craft techniques with ecological principles. Participants will learn the fundamentals of bioreceptive design and build their own living ecosystems for local species, transforming inert materials into thriving microhabitats that demonstrate the potential of design for multispecies observation and coexistence.
At a time when biodiversity loss is one of the most pressing global challenges, this workshop offers valuable insights into how design can support and celebrate life in all its forms.
