Vortragender Scientists of the TUM Institute for Advanced Study (TUM-IAS) and of the Institut für Geschichte und Theorie der Architektur, Leibniz-Universität Hannover Imagine someone were to build the Internet - not online, but as a real building. In the beginning, the Internet mainly consisted of different pages and connections between these pages, which we know today as links. Could we recreate this as a structure? We do not need real pages for this, but can start our construction with rods. Would it be possible - similar to the Internet - for everyone to contribute? What would it look like? The whole thing should also be dynamic, somehow in motion. Does not sound like a building? Well, maybe it does...

Workshop in English language, for young people from the age of 14

Long before the Internet existed, in the 1960s, the architect couple Leonardo and Laura Mosso came up with something very similar and built constructions in which the "joints", the articulated connections between different parts, are very important. An entire construction can move - and everyone can contribute something. Would you like to help build and create a structure together that can really move afterwards? You can choose between different joints, think about how you can set something in motion - and later put your parts together across different teams. You will program with the Arduino to move different parts. We will show you how to do this in the workshop. This is how you enter the world of programmable architecture...
