Mar. 17: Seed exchange + starting seeds

March 3rd, 2015 by nós

*DIY Workshop: Seed exchange + starting seeds*

Join us at another DIY Workshop on the 17th of March!
We will do a seed exchange and plant some seeds as well.
We can exchange our own gardening experiences, ideas and suggestions while starting those seeds.
If you have seeds, bring them and swap it with others.
In order to start seeds, we will need compost soil and containers with drainage holes.
If you have that, you can bring it to the workshop. Otherwise we have some to share.

Want to repair your clothes? There will be a sewing machine available as usual! And a typewriter as well!

February 1st, 2015 by nós

@OCCII 11-19h

Tomek Kowalzcyk is from Poland and studied photography, he has an amazing project of making pinhole cameras out of garbage on the street, then put the camera back where we found the garbage and make the photo!

Link to Film

We start really at 11h, because we need enough time of daylight for the project.
We will ask some donations for material costs.
There can be a maximum of 8 people participating, so you can subscribe via: kinderpret[at]occii.org (Full)
(Once you have subscribed, it’s also really important to cancel if you cannot come!)

Jan. 25: Upcycle Workshop #1

January 1st, 2015 by nós

upcycle A4

[Excerpt from Agazine #2]

“Industrialization (…) enabled the gradual participation of all classes of society in the fashion scene.
However, the dictates of haute couture still dominated…”
Create your own, non-industrialized, fashion style by swapping, upgrading, repairing and creating your own clothes/furniture/accessories.
We have enough already, there is no need to consume!

UPCYCLE WORKSHOP #1
January 25th, 14:00-17:30 @ Occii

A new workshop for everybody who feels a kick to make something special out of waste or stuff with which you have a special connection…
Think of small furniture, clothes, utensils, artifacts, stuff you don’t want to throw away but deserves a second life or a total make-over.
We are ready to help you make your concepts come true!
Take from home 3 items max. and use our tools and skills to make something unique.
You can use sewing machines, tools, extensions, decorations, silkscreen printing, paint, give away shop items, and many more things to pimp and transform your favorite stuff into an extraordinary product to take home after or swap at the spot…
Bring your friends and fantasy.

Offered by the swap-partycrew: Aga Flo, Mirna DIY, Michalis Weggeefwinkel, Thekla Ahrens Bookbinder and Eri Kinderpret/ -this is not a kids workshop…- but bigger kids can try.

Decorating with napkin:

Jan. 22: Joe’s Garage Benefit

CAPITALISM AND EDUCATION
How is the education system imposing and reinforcing capitalism?
How can we combat capitalism by radically changing our approach towards education?
What would education be like in a society without the state and without capital?
How can one educate without recreating the systems of hierarchy, obedience to authority and indoctrination that are responsible for the long lasting nature of the capitalist system?
We will discuss these ideas and put some of them into practice by teaching each other a simple skill such as crochet. Come with thoughts and tools!
If you can, bring yarn, if not it’s ok, we have some to share.
DIY WORKSHOP
The DIY Workshop is an event where we can share knowledge. You can learn to do something yourself, or you can teach someone to do something themselves. We help each other and spread information in a non-institutional, non-authoritarian and non-commercial environment.DIYW brings proficient people and interested people together in order to fight for freedom of information and the end of academic elitism and consumerism.We believe that education is not something to be acquired, but instead something to be experienced whenever possible.
