Dork Swap!

Wednesday, September 19th @ 7:30pm
911 Media Arts
402 9th Ave N.

This month’s Dorkbot is coming a little bit later, since so many of the Dorks are recovering from Burning Man. The theme this month is Dork Swap, and everyone is encouraged to bring abandoned projects, old equipment, etc. for trading. They’ll also be showing off some videos of Theo Janssen’s work and talking about Seattle’s Hazard Factory heading over to Amsterdam for Robodock.

Next month, Dorkbot returns to it’s regularly scheduled time – the first Wednesday of the month, with Dorkmusic.

Dorkbot: Art of Burning Man

Wednesday, August 1st @ 7:30pm
911 Media Arts
402 9th Ave N.

I’ve never been to Burning Man, but I’d be lying if I said it didn’t pique my curiousity around this time every year. The festival starts at the end of August, so Dorkbot this month is highlighting Art from the Playa. Presenters will include Simon Winder talking about his “dog dish” art car, Buphalo discussing fire and art (and interesting mixtures of the two), and Mars Saxman will be showing hot to make laser fingers. And, of course, I’m sure there will be lots more Burners on hand Wednesday to socialize and talk about the whole experience.
