What if we told you you could take a selfie at a butt-activated booth? Would you go for it? If you answer yes, then you should really pop into the ArtScience Museum.
From Dec. 10 (Wednesday) — 14 (Sunday), the museum will hold a festival called Living Leonardos, celebrating the life of Leonardo da Vinci. The festival supports ArtScience’s latest exhibition Da Vinci: Shaping the Future with workshops exploring the art of — among others — 3D printing, digital doodling and codex hacking… for free.
Here’s a full list of the workshops:
· Digital doodling and 3D printing by Simplifi3D
· Codex Hacking by David Liew
· Fabric Hacking by Agatha Lee & Leon Lim
· Mobile Holographic Display by Jason Loo
· Silkscreen/batik circuits by Cherlyn Mak
A display of winning works from the Singapore Maker Festival’s Make-a-thon challenge will be making their debut at the ArtScience Museum. These art pieces were created based on Leonardo da Vinci’s seven principles: Curiosita, Dimonstrazione, Sensazione, Sfumato, Arte/Scienza, Corporalita and Connesione.
The festival will also feature various guest projects such as the Synesthethe’s Music Box & Circle of Light. Created by Art Makes Us Collective, it allows visitors to play and interact with the colour blocks to create sounds. Other guest makers include: Edmund Wee (Invisible Stickers), Benjamin Tang (Home Made Science: DIY microscope, Sound Kit, Lissajous figures), and Saad Chinoy & Michelle Lye (DIY Selfie Printer booth).
