To launch our 2024-25 Automata workshop series, we are offering the first for FREE! Learn how to make simple mechanisms for Automata and learn about our plans for the entire year.
WHEN: September 15 + 29, 7-8:30 p.m. Central European Time
WHERE: Zoom platform
This introductory class will teach you several simple automata that you can easily make at home with scrap wood, clothespins, and other materials that are easily sourced. We will be inspired by works of many automata makers, including Robert Race, whose work is pictured here. On September 15, you you will learn the basic techniques. Between sessions you will construct a prototype and present it at the second session.
Our Automata Series will run from September to April 2025. It will be taught by Mirek Trejtnar, expert woodcarver, toymaker and automata builder. You will get regular consultations at this highly individualized course. You will also see the work of fellow students throughout the course.
