Data Crafting Club Meet-up #1 - Data viz friendship bracelets!
Come to our first Data Crafting Club meet-up and learn how to create data viz friendship bracelets!
In this workshop, you will learn how to:
Collect and analyse your own data (hint: We'll be taking a peek into your camera roll!)
Visualise that data into multi-coloured beads
Go home with your own custom-made friendship bracelets that represent the data you've collected
By turning data into custom bracelets, we learn how to visualise memories, conversations, relationships and photographs into everyday, wearable craft.
This will be a hands-on workshop! Held at the lovely Kathleen Syme Library in Carlton.
Tickets are $12 to cover for craft/bracelet materials and event snacks. Participants will be allowed to bring home some material and extra bracelets as needed.
