We’re delighted to announce that for the first time Ludic Rooms will be filling a whole festival tent with our special blend of creative fun, technology, making and play. We call it… The Experi-Tent.
There’ll be tinkering opportunities for all ages; a marble run that you can help to build, knock down and re-build again; beautiful eye-popping digital images that you can peek at and play with; a VR experience shared by the Lanchester Interactive Archive; a play space that can be hacked and modified; as well as making loveliness provided by the Community Studio Van – a joint project between Coventry University and Warwick Arts Centre.
