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!

#Fabricademy bootcamp 2025
May 19→25

Don't miss this year's bootcamp in Brussels to encounter international fellows in the field of #textile, #engineering and #biology.

I am co-organizing it through the #fablab @GreenFabric and the #fabricademy team (@fabtextiles ).

A great opportunity to test Fabricademy themes and way of working through intense hands-on workshops. It will cover #biomaterials with #mycelium #fungi, #modulardesign, #machineknitting with the #kniterate machine, using the #opensourcehardware machines that we built, #etextile with thermochromic inks.

Don't miss also the #MakerFaire on the following week-end (May 26-27) with the Fabricademy exhibition of final projects and a workshop on #softrobotics.

More info on https://bootcamp2025.textile-academy.org.

Boosts are more than welcome!
