oliver
Oliver is a PhD candidate at the University of Bristol exploring democratised scalable fabrication of electronic devices with 3D printing. His research involves both novel printing techniques with hobbyist machines as well as understanding making and hacking communities' experiences with personal fabrication tools. He navigates between practical fabrication and machine mediated user-material interactions. Oliver also likes shapes, patterns, machines, and slugs.
Session
In this hands-on workshop, we'll turn tiny microcontrollers into real web servers hosted from the hardware in your hands. We'll get ESP32s running simple pages on the public internet, then decorate them with craft supplies and electronics into what I'm calling "sculptural computation": physical objects that tell a story about how the web actually works.
