Low Tech

Make a camera

Cameras can be made from almost any box-like material. We like to explore recycled material like drink cans and cardboard boxes of any shape.

Create with Cardboard

Cardboard is for prototyping. Cutting, securing, moving parts... name the challenge and play!

Printing Press

Using an old-fashioned printing press is a way to understand how technology helps change how we do things. A hands-on experience makes it real.

Micro/Macroscopy

Simple microscopes can be built from easily-available lenses. Macros also allow you to get closer to your subject to reveal usually invisible details.

Giggling Weeds

Using a simple computer interface, and some basic programming, we can get the plants to giggle!
