Workshop 1: Squishy Circuits and littleBits

In the first workshop we started off by constructing simple circuits using Squishy Circuits conductive and insulating dough, lighting up LEDs and sounding buzzers:

First meeting of Interactive Sculpture Group 2014

Creating 'squishy sculptures' with conductive and insulating dough

A bank of LEDs connected with conductive dough

Another artwork constructed with squishy circuits ..

Next everyone had a go with electronics kits called littleBits we hope that the group will come up with their own ideas to develop some art and electronics workshops with the kits to take into local schools.
