Weird Machine Wrekshop • Paul Granjon

In the organizer's words:

Broken fax machines, CD players, inkjet printers, toasters, scanners, clock radios, hand mixers, desktops, hairdryers... private households are full of discarded electrical appliances. Anyone who believes that electronic waste is no longer worth anything should pay a visit to the Arne Jacobsen Foyer.

Creativity and recycling are at the heart of Paul Granjon's Weird Machine Wrekshop. Together with children and young people, freaks, nerds and those who want to become one, the Daniel Gyro Gearloose of the British art scene builds highly individual works of art from disused electronic devices. Motors, sensors, chips, microcontrollers and all parts that are still functional will be taken from the defective devices and, over the course of a week, together with the public, misappropriated, recycled and perhaps even upgraded in a gradually growing sculpture.

During opening hours, the public is invited to help build the sculpture. As part of the KinderKunstSpektakel, the creativity of the future generation of inventors is particularly in demand. On three separate dates, Paul Granjon invites you to themed workshopsto delve deeper into the subject matter with interested parties of different ages and interests. Only the installation can be visited at these times.

ACCESSIBILITY
