Upcoming Events: Make Night & Evening of Robots

Loads of great events coming up in February! First off there is a “Make Night” in the Science Gallery on Thursday the 11th of February 6pm to 8pm. This is at slightly different time than mentioned in previous posts (as it clashed with Science Gallery re-opening party).

The idea of a “Make Night” is simple – come along to the Science Gallery and make ANYTHING you like, in the company of other “makers” doing the same. Share ideas, materials and tools. Show off you projects and from learn the experience of others. Drink Italian coffee and talk to friendly creative people. Engineers, artists, jam makers, glue and glitter experts are all welcome. Pick a project, get your materials together and join in the fun. Still not clear? Check out the 5 minute ignite talk about them here.

It’s also going to be an Irish Robotics Club meeting, with testing of the robots we are sending to Robot Challenge 2010 in full swing, so watch out for rogue speedy robots at your feet!

Admission free.

The very next day (12th of February) there will be an “Evening of Robots” being held in collaboration with our friends at TOG. This is on in their space on Arran quay. It’s part of a series of events they are running for Engineering Week, which are open to the public. Well worth checking out!

One more thing,  world of robots on at BT Young Scientist Exhibition at the moment.  Looks like fun!
