Marginalia+Lab organizes, from the 23rd and 30rd of september the workshop "Introduction to Gambiologic Studies I, coordinated by Gambiologia Project [Fred Paulino and Lucas Mafra].

Gambiologia is a construction of electronic devices with an antropofagic accent. Reusing devices, it brings a new meaning to the technological context by assuming a posture of creatively recontextualizing materials usually understood as jetsam. The elaboration of artifacts in an improvised way portrays the spontaneity of the everyday of big cities and proposes a reflection about the perishability, deterioration and reinvention of technology.

The workshop proposes and introduction to gambiologic theory through the construction of low-tech music instruments. Reusing equipments, toys and different sound emitters, the workshop will approach different themes, like high and low level electronics, circuit bending, improvised industrial design and tecno-canibalism.

Enrollment period goes until saturday, 19th of september, and should be made through the email lab@marginaliaproject.com, including full name, short cv, motivation letter and contact information.
