March 2011 – ongoing
I co-organise bi-monthly meetings of Dorkbot Cardiff in collaboration with Paul Granjon.
The dorkbot global network is made of groups of people “doing strange things with electricity”. There are more than 100 groups worldwide, who meet at various intervals and present work in progress, experiments, hacks and other unexpected uses of technology. Members of dorkbot groups include artists, engineers, designers, musicians, hackers, curious types, no robots yet.
The Cardiff chapter of dorkbot enjoys a vibrant membership. The event is free to run (thanks Milgi!), free to attend and free to all. We also enjoy good connections with our dorkbot cousins in Tokyo, New York, London, Bristol, Sheffield and the ‘Burning Dork’ UK Dorkbot summer camp.
Here’s the website: http://www.dorkbot.org/dorkbotcardiff/
Get in touch if you would like to present!
