What if fabric could respond to your touch? What if embroidery wasn’t just decorative, but interactive? Join us for a hands-on workshop where art meets neurotech! 🧠🎨 In collaboration with the University of Alberta Art Club, we’re blending embroidery, biosensors, and LEDs to create interactive fabric projects you can take home. Using the Adafruit Flora microcontroller and NeoPixels, you’ll create a fabric-based project that responds to touch—lighting up in different colors depending on how it’s pressed. Plus, we’ve got snacks and drinks to keep the ideas flowing. No experience needed—just curiosity and creativity! ✂️ 📅 March 21 | 6-9 PM 📍 Student Innovation Centre, UofA 🎟 Limited spots—sign up now at lu.ma/yz2neicm!
