How smart are our smart devices if we cannot repair and reuse them? A team from our design-led research laboratory at @LancasterUni will pose this question to hundreds of festival-goers as they run The Repair Shop 2049 tent at @bluedotfestival lancaster.ac.uk/news/fixing-… 1/5

Calling Artists, Makers and Creatives of all kinds!
We are looking for imaginative and distinctive ideas that engage our audiences with inspiring MAKING content. There are two types of opportunities currently open for applications ⬇️
Somebody asked me last week about other (than @TheMakingRooms) completely free to everyone (& machine access) FabLabs/makerspaces in England and I drew a blank. Does anyone know of any?
