Fab Boot Camp 2010 - Summer
Program
Note 1: Most 8 hour days with instruction have a 3 hour open lab time slot planned with instructor assistance to help you complete the assignment/project for the day.
Note 2: Each participant will be asked to think of a project of interest to themselves or their community that integrates several of the fab lab tools and processes, and then to make a working prototype during the course of this two week Boot Camp. You can work in teams if you wish.
Note 3: The following sources are significantly subsidizing this series of workshops: the Norwegian government, the Lyngen Commune, MIT-Fab Lab Norway, and the Fab Labs in Amsterdam, Iceland, and Barcelona. Without their kind assistance, this workshop would not be possible.
