I gave a “tinker friday” workshop during Pictoplasma Berlin 2019, we prepared so many products that were no longer working for participants to take apart, see what’s inside and then try to imagine and design their own characters from all the pieces.

Seeing more than 100 people with screwdrivers in their hand makes me so happy! I hope everyone who joined had a great time 🙌 I hope you learned more about what’s inside your products and that now you don’t fear taking anything apart! Maybe even try to fix it!

Some shared that it was a challenge for them to create with a different medium, they mostly work with paper or digitally on computer (not with computer parts!) But challenging your creative muscle is always a good and they ended up creating very interesting characters!
