DIY RADIO WORKSHOPS
We are all embroilled in science and technology through bio-geo-chemcial cycles and deep time. Technology reforms how we listen, connect, communicte and emerge. Technology is abroad category: drawing, cooking, building and building radios are all types of technology. Tech is not just the giant baby of tax evading billionaires and investors, it can also be used to mobilise and activate movements that demand greater equity. The point of this workshop is to explore the materiality (the material componants and what they feel like) of electronics. Electronic waste is a growing issue disproportionately affection people of the Global South and rare metal mines are the site of accidents and unacceptable inequality and violence against ecosystem and people.
This workshop can fix all of this but we hope to encourage a more caring and careful approach to compotants, where you learn how to make your own and make a radio receiver. Making capacitors from kitchen roll and aluminuim foil, making diodes with aluminium razor blades and carbon.
