The Dublin Hackerspace
TOG members and collaborators had three stands at RUA RED’s Digital Week. Paul ran a Learn To Solder workshop, where participants created their own “I Can Solder” LED badge…
… Tríona and Becky ran the TwitterKnitter and yarnbombed the venue with knitted tweets…
… and Niki showcased her electronics/felt collaboration with Cheryl, including the Neckpiece that Predicts the Weather.
Thanks to RUA RED for hosting an excellent event!
We are teaming up with Intel, Coder Dojo Girls and Coder Dojo DCU to bring about a special event for the International Day of the Girl on October 11. A day long hackathon style to give an introduction to the Galileo board. The participants will learn basics of coding an embedded environment and get hand an experience with hardware. The second half of the day will focus on creating electronic fashion wearable technology and funky robots.

Laser is moving!
TOG will be at Sandymount Repair Cafe this coming Saturday (27th) 2pm – 5pm in Christchurch Hall, Sandymount.
A repair cafe is where people come together and fix all sorts of things. Experts work along side the object’s owner and take a journey together to repair things. The hope is next time you will be able to fix something yourself .
If you have something that is in need of repair and want to know how to do it, drop by on Saturday.
Laser starting to move, last few things left to buy and we should be up and running very soon. Come check it out.
We were mobbed with visitors on culture night 🙂 . If you made it in to see us, thanks for coming and hopefully you got to look around the space and to see some of our projects. Drop in again anytime we’re open. If you would like to look around again or you missed something, we can give you another tour. You don’t need to be a member to visit and there’s no charge.
