When small art machines are created from everyday materials
On Saturday, October 24, 2026, the main branch of the city library in Freiburg will transform into an open tinkering workshop for children and adolescents aged 8 and up. In this free workshop for Code Week, coding, robotics, and art come together with curious experimentation.
Programming, building, and experimenting
Using small digital motors, everyday materials, and a programmable computer, participants will develop their own art machines. This will result in moving, surprising, and creative constructions that make technology tangible and encourage further thinking.
Open event experience without prior knowledge
The workshop is designed as an open participatory format. No prior knowledge is required: The focus is on practical experiences, collaborative tinkering, and the joy of turning one’s own ideas into reality step by step. The vibrant event atmosphere of the library provides a suitable framework for this.
