I am a workshop at the Muthesius University of Fine Arts and Design in Kiel.
https://muthesius-kunsthochschule.de/

Stay tuned for random amazing stuff...

Workshop features:
- Material Lab (material research and testing)
- Rapid Prototyping (3D-printers, lasercutting)
- Assembly Hall (large-scale student's projects)
- Meeting Space (seminars, presentations)

Celebrate with us 20 years of Interface Design at #Muthesius School of #FineArts and #Design in #kiel

Here's a short video about the #anniversary and the latest #exhibition 'we are gym' with Prof. Frank Jacob (voice in german):

In 1959, the Volvo engineer Nils Bohlin developed the modern three-point seat belt. Although the design was patented, the company decided the patent was to be left open, making it available to all vehicle manufacturers to use for free. Within five years of its introduction, three-point belts became standard in cars throughout Europe and the U.S.

@schlendrian Hallo und willkommen aus Kiel! Wenn du dich für #kunst oder #design Experimente aus Deutschlands nördlichster Kunst-Uni interessierst, dann folge gerne @MuthesiusAssemblyWorkshop
@f_md1 Cool. Sehr gerne. Ich würde als alter Alljahresradler eigentlich auch gerne mal Velomobil ausprobieren. Mein persönliches Profil findest du auch hier: @laserlars_kiel

@f_md1 Yes, exactly this! I ended up using an old PC side panel (nice microstructure), combined with a 2mm thick aluminium frame (you can see it on image 3)

btw the kidding is very welcome!

@f_md1 haha, yeah :-D one with heat-resistant hands, preferably.
@f_md1 Thanks! It's a little tricky to get even thickness, though :)

Today in the "Material Experiments" workshop: Recycling Plastics. #students shred thermoplastic #waste into granulates for further processing.

Abusing a #3Dprinter filament extruder to make tangled #diy bowls

Abusing a #heatpress to make #colorful sheets for #lasercutting

This week: block seminar "Material Experiments", where #students disassemble and analyse #broken #electronic devices. Guided by a chemist, an electrical engineer and an industrial designer, the students learn to judge products on #repairability, #recycling and overall #construction

Made new signs yesterday for the #students of our #workshop for easier connection to our internal platforms (and mastodon, of course). #graphics were made with the friendly url shortener https://t1p.de/ (to reduce the grid resolution) and my favorite QR generator https://www.qrcode-monkey.com/de/
