Workshop

WALL-E & the land of Digital E-Waste - De Creatieve STEM

Can you build your own WALL-E from electronic waste? A creature that lights up, moves, makes sounds or responds to touch? During this drop-in workshop, we take apart old electronic waste and dive into the world of soldering, circuits, wiring and simple electronics. In this way, we give discarded components a surprising new lease of life.

From loose components and cables to sparkling lights, you'll be challenged to investigate, experiment and design. There is no fixed end result. Everyone builds their own unique creature, creative object or prototype at their own pace.
