Welcome to join Makers On-Site: Co-Create Series Workshop| Session 02 — From Mechanical Structures to Kinetic Art Installation 🚀

What you’ll get

  1. Hands-on making with AIGC-assisted ideation, 3D modeling, 3D printing, laser cutting, and interactive systems
  2. Create a portfolio-ready project about kinetic installations, individually or in teams
  3. Selected works may become long-term exhibits in the new Innovation Hub
