Workshop

Cooking new materials. Neomateria

In May, we participated in the event Neomateria 2024. Cocinando nuevos materiales co-organized by Materfad and CCAM (Consorci de Comerç, Artesania i Moda de Catalunya).

We organized a 2-day workshop and took part in a talk where we discussed the future of craftsmanship and alternative energy sources.

Participants from various craft disciplines collaborated in the construction of two solar dehydrators that can be used to dry both food and biomaterials.

Learn to build a bike generator

Organized together with Low-tech Magazine, this workshop was an opportunity to open conversations about how we use resources and the alternatives we can experiment with.

We started with a talk on energy self-production and continued with a practical session covering basic electricity concepts and the creation of a bike generator.

Working as a team, participants built control panels and hacked electrical devices to power them with the bike’s direct current.
