What do you think about this colorful musical experience with Scratch Video Sensing? Each color is a different musical note. This way is possible to create colorful songs that actually look good. #scratch #videosensing #tinkering #RBAC #creativelearning

We love paper as a material for exploring light and shadow! What are some other favorite materials for exploring light and shadow? #TinkeringGlow @danilyra @CeMoCreates @keithbraafladt @nathanrab @ryokomatsumoto @beatriz_reyp

Fingers crossed for Brazil as we face a dreadful election
Hoje, a vontade do povo brasileiro prevalecerá. Em jogo, a democracia e o país que queremos para os nossos filhos. Feliz por estar do lado certo da história. A partir de amanhã, teremos um país a ser reconstruído e um povo a ser novamente unido. Que o dia de hoje seja de paz.

I made a table-sized pixel drawing machine (to demonstrate anti-aliasing in digital type and let people play with it.) One of the things I made for my show at the @center4bookarts which officially opens tonight, 6pm. Come! (first solo show in nyc!!)

How do you create spaces that support #tinkering? Transforming a conference room into a creative space can be tough! Here are before after pics 📸 from a recent workshop that share a glimpse into how we think about creating compelling spaces. We pushed tables together...(1/3)

Getting prepped (i.e. making LOTS of cardboard shapes 😅) for the 2022 California Science Education Conference! We'll be sharing a balance exploration inspired by an @exploratorium exhibit in collaboration with the Institute for Inquiry. @cascience #cascience #cascience22

"Drunk Sierpinski": Instead of picking the midpoints of the sides of the triangles to make the triangle-holes, I chose points via a normal distribution, mean = midpoint, SD = 5% of length #mathart #Mathematica

Ooh very cool! Ok, you've inspired me to share a half-baked idea: I've just started playing with slotted cardboard parts and Unstable Table. I feel like you could take this somewhere really interesting... #exploringbalance #tinkering

ICYMI We build this simple "analog" version of a Larson Scanner using our Crazy Circuits parts, some LEGO, and Maker Tape. (No programming needed!)
Here's a fun project using Crazy Circuits parts, Maker Tape, and LEGO... Fans of Knight Rider and Battlestar Galactica will recognize this "Larson Scanner" 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 ➡️ p2url.com/bdg226 #circuits #LEGO #STEM #electronics #teacherTwitter #stemForKids #makingSTEM #DIY

Coming soon? Yes, we're launching it later this year so that must be *really soon*. We sometimes have a few spare prototype kits to sell too 😉😉 Find out more: cabaret.co.uk/automata-tinke…
