We are very proud to join the existing line-up of speakers at TEDx Warwick; this year hosted at Warwick Arts Centre.  TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. TED is a nonprofit devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading. It started out (in 1984) as a conference bringing together people from three worlds: Technology, Entertainment, Design. Ted believe passionately in the power of ideas to change attitudes, lives and ultimately, the world.  We will be sharing amongst other things our passion for ICT in education, our obsessions with gadgets, interaction design, analogue/digital inputs and outputs and the notion of game mechanics and how they can transform peoples experiences. We will also be providing an interactive experience to our talk so expect to use more than just your eyes and ears! For more information and tickets please visit http://www.tedxwarwick.com/

A very little tease. In the dark.

LR007 - Fargo Space // Video Blog 4

Getting a bit out of sequence here.

We don’t want to give too much away yet but its fair to say this is the starting point for one of the Fargo pieces. 

Just a sneak peak of our exploration of technology during our residency at Fargo Space.

We meet textiles artist Julia O’Connell to explore the hybrid of open source electronics alongside different conductive fabrics and stitching.

Technology Playspace this Sunday

On Sunday the 27th November 2011 we will be hosting the Fargo Hack Play Space, an informal exhibition and sharing of new work from our residency at Fargo Space.

We love watching people play with the Don’t Touch Screen at Warwick Arts Centre; that little moment of joy people feel as they realise they are in control of the piece, no matter the technology.  We were keen to try and create something new that explored that same interaction between analogue and digital.

We’ve been busy beavering away for the last month, using our time in the Fargo Space for research and development to create a series of new interactive works. We’ve been working with sensors and servos, monitors and projectors, light and sound. And we’d love for you to come and have a play with what we’ve made.

All of the pieces are interactive, you help create the work; responding to touch, movement, sound and light.

Unit 4, Far Gosford Industrial Estate, Coventry will be transformed into a technology play space, open to the public from 4pm. Please bring all the family, our work is for kids big and small.

If you’re intrigued, but not sure, watch out for some new videos explaining the new work, coming very soon.

If you have any questions, tweet us @ludicrooms or drop us an email us[at]ludicrooms.com

This project has been realised thanks to the funding and support from Coventry City Council Small Arts Grant Scheme and the Talking Birds Fargo SPACE Programme. http://fargospace.posterous.com/

Tickets for #fargospace Circuit Bending workshops #lr007

http://lr007.eventbrite.co.uk/

Join with us as we explore everyday electronics and the possibilities that they hold. Each group of participants will take apart an electronic gadget/toy and learn the necessary new skills to enable its repurpose. The modified gadget will be taken home as a souvenir.

To enable as broad an audience as possible we have offered the workshop on a pay what you can model. Please bear in mind that when purchasing your ticket, the components and electronics costs per participant are at least £3.

This workshop will be taking place on a Saturday or Sunday morning at 10AM. The workshop will last roughly 2 hours. Please choose your ticket date carefully when purchasing. As it is November we would recommend wearing warm clothes however do not wear any garments which may be restrictive.

The workshop does require the use of soldering irons and for this reason we will only accept participants aged 16 years or over. We are willing to accept participants aged 11-16 provided they are accompanied by an adult and therefore 2 tickets are required. No previous soldering experience is necessary and all tools will be provided for you - you may of course choose to bring your own soldering iron if you have experience of soldering electronic components but it is not essential.

We look forward to seeing you all

Dom and Ash

It’s playtime. We have some lovely electronics toys today.

We’ve just picked up the keys. Been working on other things all day but couldn’t resist going over with a bit of tech once the light started fading.
