On Saturday, we decided to run a mini Maker Carnival on the container hackerspace currently in front Grand Gateway in Xujiahui, Shanghai. This being the one of the busiest intersections in Shanghai, we have attract a lot of interested and meet interesting people. Thanks for the volunteers from our space, Make+ and DFRobot.
Busy event
Make+ and brain matter!
Firefly from Make+
The Snake Robot steals the show
The kids can’t get enough of the snake
Beauties and snake… That’s how men got into trouble in the first place? 🙂
Mr. Wen built the snake and explain to visitors about it
Boys and robots
People are still trying to figure out this 3D printing thing…

What’s a night hanging out at the pop up hackerspace in Xu Jia Hui without some long exposure and flash fun! Lumi and David are both long time Strobist and can’t pass the chance to have some fun creating ghost photos while looking after the container.
How to make ghost photos?
The ghost photos are made with long exposure, in this case, f/20 and 5 second shutter, two flashes (one on the floor and one on the top of the container). The subjects ran into the positions, trigger the flash the manually with a remote and ran out of the frame. The flash froze the subject in place against the long exposure background and appear translucent.

3维打印机已迅速普及，开始在相关行业产生影响。所想，所见，即所得。
我们将进行一系列的workshop来探索如何通过3维打印机实现最酷的想法，把概念变成实际的模型，充分发挥3维打印机的无限可能。我们从最开始的知识普及，经过头脑风暴，然后在3维软件里面建立设计模型，输出到打印机进行打印。经过这一流程，工作营的成员将获得关于3维打印得系统知识，并开启个人基于3维打印系统的项目。
9月1日下午2点在新车间Kickoff
位于新车间的聚会将宣布工作营的开始。我们从一个小项目开始，先用3维扫描仪扫描生活中的一个物品，玩具，茶杯…..或者身体的一部分，手指，耳朵，脚踝….然后基于扫描数据设计一样相关的“物品”，打印！
一组幻灯片3d打印的基本知识。起源，发展，和趋势。
头脑风暴，能做什么，需要掌握什么知识和工具，鼓励跨界，协作和新奇想法。
学习：3到4个周末或晚上
如何使用打印机，什么是STL文件，哪些软件可以建立设计模型。
学习使用3维软件Rhino以及Rhino的参数化设计插件Grasshopper.
3ds MAX 和Sketchup.
Processing，脚本，arduino。
项目：4到6个周末或晚上
workshop将基于项目展开，成员制定自己的计划。穿插以上3d扫描，打印及软件技术的学习应用。每个人最终完成自己的项目。玩具，首饰，建构，互动装置，环太平洋机器人….
展览，final review！
