Swarm programming at CSM physical computing lab – with Arduino

From 1 February to 29 February, Central Saint Martins’ Digital Innovation Season will explore and celebrate creativity in the digital space. This platform offers public talks and workshops for CSM students.The 2024 edition will focus on ‘Planetary Sensing’. This takes a ‘planetary’ perspective related to the climate crisis, social impact, and learning, teaching and research that engage cutting edge technologies like AI, IoT, wearables, and spatial computing. Rather than imagining a schism between the local and the global, a planetary perspective considers the material conditions of the planet - and how the earth understands and communicates through arrays of satellites, sensors, swarms, and servers that influence geographies, climate, and societies.

Central Saint Martins: Digital Innovation Season

Onsite workshop led by Marguerite Tricaud.

<h3><strong>This event is for CSM Students only.</strong></h3><p><strong>Please note:</strong> due to limited places this workshop is open to applications -  you will be asked questions when you click 'Register'.</p><p>Your application will be reviewed by the DIS team, and we will email you with a response. We aim to notify you of our decision as promptly as possible.</p><h3>In this workshop, students will discover the creative potential of self-organising systems, inspired by the behaviour of living organisms. Participants will co-create a digital ecosystem made of independent electronic devices that respond to their environment and to their neighbours. </h3><h3>Small electronic devices will be provided to the participants. Each device will be able to sense its environment and generate light and sound. Participants will be able to program the behaviour of their own device, and when all devices are brought together, they will generate emergent soundscapes and visual effects. Participants will learn about how natural and digital ecosystems are able to self-organize and how they generate emergent structures. They will develop an understanding of the impact of humans on these natural systems. </h3><h3>Participants will also engage with physical computing tools, exploring the potential of sensors and programming microcontrollers to create generative artworks.
