Pedagogical Use & Workshops
Since 2023, Drawdio has played a central role in Otherthings’ educational approach, especially through a series of workshops designed for children. These sessions have taken place in diverse contexts such as miniBOOTH at FEZ Berlin and ZÖNOTÉKA Project Space, combining creative drawing with circuit-based sound experimentation.
In each workshop, children build their own Drawdio, a circuit connected to a pencil, and discover how sound is created through drawing and touch. They explore how graphite, the human body, and conductive paths form a complete circuit—turning a simple line on paper into a dynamic sound controller.
Through playful experimentation and collective creation, the workshops introduce basic concepts of electronics such as conductivity and resistance in an intuitive, embodied way.
The sessions encourage curiosity, sensory exploration, and collaboration — allowing each participant to contribute to a shared sonic experience.
