Learn how to use Dr Evil, Sparkhaus’ new laser cutter! We will take you through the hows, whats, and do not touch ever’s of the machine. At the end you will have learned how to cut, vector etch, and raster etch. Everyone gets a go! If you have Adobe Illustrator or InDesign, awesome! Bring your laptops and we can create together 🙂 Otherwise feel free to bring in some artwork to practice cutting as a .dxf file on your thumb drive. More info to come. PEW! PEW!
Blinky Light Workshop

So you want/need some blinky lights (LEDs) but don’t know how to make the magic happen…Skill-up Time!! Learn to solder and how to program your own LED projects before you hear that word DARKWAD again!
We are running a 2 part workshop. Come for one or both, you will still walk away with your own working multicolour LED light strip whatever your skill level.
Soldering:
We will teach you the basics of joining wires and components. Equipment provided. No more twisting things together with tape!
Programmable LEDs:
Jeremy and Hamish get you up and running using these cute little things called Arduinos. No experience necessary, just bring your Mac or PC laptop if you have one.
Cost is $15 Sparkhaus member/ $25 per person otherwise – this pays for your very own LEDs and microcontroller to keep.
Please deposit money into the Dirty Birds (Burning Seed Theme Camp) account as your RSVP (THIS HOLDS YOUR PLACE). Limited to 20 places
