The intention of this workshop is to share processes and experience a wide range of working techniques and possibilities to contribute to the class’s practical and creative skill set. Furthermore, the workshop should provide active methods for the class to sample new techniques, learn about each other and consider creative ways to work together toward a unified outcome. Also, the workshop should relate to (loose or direct) thinking about The Book of Joy.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

My partner for this workshop was Jean Menezes, who is a digital graphic designer and his skills are based on illustration, from sketch to digital painting, and ideation techniques. My skills are in digital fabrication and rapid prototyping techniques, E-textiles, wearables & biomaterials, and basic electronics. So, we decided to combine our skills and create a 2-hour workshop that includes the 8 pillars of the Book of Joy during the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The workshop was divided in 2 parts. During the first hour we taught the class how to create a pop-up folding paper, showing them the 2 different types of it and letting them make their own designs. Then, they had to follow some steps to create a certain pop-up folding paper we pre-designed as part of the final piece in this workshop. During the second hour, the class learnt how to create a basic electronic circuit to turn on a LED. Finally, the whole class had to apply what they learnt to make their pop-up folding paper piece interactive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
