In this hands-on tinkering session we will explore the ways in which the tinkering approach can be applied to subjects beyond the usual physics explorations. In this experimental session you can try out tinkering investigations related to biology, chemistry and other scientific disciplines.

This year at the Ecsite Conference’s MakerSpace we are opening a series of informal dialogues on topics that are important to the maker community. When we think back and remember times when we received unexpected tips on how to operate our space, found a great collaborator or discovered new practices we remember that an informal conversation between sessions led to these new ideas. Whether you are a MakerSpace pro or a complete newcomer, join these active discussion sessions and get new perspectives on making and tinkering in museums.
