Sydney Mini Maker Faire 2015
From banana pianos to laser harps, nerdy inventions reign supreme at this Sydney science fair.
Overview
Calling all gadget fiends, the Sydney Science Festival is back and has brought the Mini Maker Faire with it. It's like the large-scale 'Show and Tell' of our primary school memories, except this chapter goes for two days, includes robots and we don't have to sit cross-legged on the floor.
Various 'Makers' will be showing their latest innvations at the Faire, and there'll be plenty of workshops where you can learn how to do crazy things like playing with robots and controlling real world objects using code. There's pretty much something for everyone here, from 3D printers to banana pianos and laser harps. Yep, LASER HARPS.
The Maker Movement is a recent one, embracing innovation and invention, so you're sure to see something pretty damn cool (and possibly completely weird) on the day. Whether you're a tech head, amateur scientist or long-time tinkerer, there'll be something to pique your interest at the Faire.
