Following on from our exciting Science meets Art workshops held in the yurt last year, we prepared yet another spectacle …….. this time exploring the physics of cycle power! Working with a group of young people from High Peak and the scientists at Fab Lab, an amazing fabrication Lab in Manchester, we designed and made a cycle power device for our yurt. Artist/Maker Julian Tate created an interactive installation to be placed inside the yurt that reflected the science of electro-magnetics in a fun and engaging manner…….
We launched our workshop Watts in the Yurt at:
Whaley Bridge Water Weekend at Whaley Bridge Canal on 11th June 2011
Watch this space for future events.
This project was funded by Institute of Physics.
