After hosting the #Fabricademy #bootcamp 2025 at @greenfabric we are already preparing next Fabricademy 6-months course starting in September! This programme mixes #textile, #digitalfabrication and #biology

Running from mid-September till end of March, it is led by international experts in many different fields: #biomaterials, #opensource #hardware, #naturaldye, #softrobotics, #etextile, #digitalbodies, #textilescaffolds… It gathers students all around the world through international nodes (#Belgium, the Netherlands, Spain, France, Armenia, Jordan, Rwanda, Mexico, Japan…).

It is not structurally subsidized but Green Fabric, the Belgian node, offers 2 full-scolarships per year (for 3 years) with the support of Feder and Brussels Fablab Network. This scolarship covers the 8000$ subscription fees and you'll have access to our textile #fablab during the programme.
I will be the local instructor in Brussels.

Please spread the word to people you think might be interested to follow this one-of-a-kind course!

In a world that’s rapidly embracing innovation, architecture and engineering are no longer just about drawing lines or sketching beautiful forms. They’ve become deeply rooted in computation, algorithms, and smart design processes that harness the power of Topology Optimization to create more with less. #AIinArchitecture #ComputationalDesign #DigitalFabrication #TopologyOptimization

Tomorrow is the online open day of #fabricademy , a 6 months course on textile and digital. It's an international course that you can follow at a node in your country. If there's no node where you are but you have access to #fablab machines, you can also follow the course with a remote mentor.

Tomorrow is the perfect moment to see what is the course about, projects made within the course, ask questions, etc.

I am myself a Fabricademy tutor at @greenfabric Brussels node.

Hello, Fab Lab research community! 📢 The Call for Papers for FAB25 is open and waiting for your submissions! https://easychair.org/cfp/fab25

📢 We are making an important change to the FABx Research Papers stream to strengthen the position of the Proceedings and your valuable research:

we are moving from abstract submission and review to *full paper* submission and full blind peer review. The deadline to submit *full papers* is 7 April. Start writing!

I wrote up a post about my attempt to use digital fabrication (3D printing) to create a linocut style print.

This stuff gets me going because it's sort of uncharted territory where I am figuring things out...

And I get to mess with 3D printing *and* printmaking along the way.
