Want to learn how to design 3D objects for printing? Using Autodesk 123D Design, participants will learn how to create and customise a game piece for a set of checkers at this special Vivid Ideas event. These game pieces will be used and played with by visitors to The Learning Space at The Connection, Rhodes. In this workshop we will cover how things are designed in CAD, basic tools in 123D Design, creating a 3D object suitable for printing and saving an STL file ready to print.

In this fun, hands-on workshop, participants will construct cool cardboard costumes and paper prototype creations, and embed them with awesome programmable LEDs at this Vivid Ideas event. They’ll learn to code in Arduino, to make their LEDs create different colours and patterns. No experience necessary, just bring your creativity and be ready to light fashion creations! We’re teaming up with our friends from dLux Media Arts for this workshop.
