Chantier technoludique workshop

In the workshops he offers mainly in youth centers, the multi-media artist and, Constantin Vancraeynest, leads the participants to ask themselves about the use of technologies, however archaic they may be.

He shares his pleasure in gleaning and recovering old objects, to use them as raw material and to aggregate current technologies (Arduino, Kinect, 3D printing, prog…).

In short, all you need to push the boundaries of your imagination!

Production: Transcultures.

Biography

Graduated in 2016 from the Carré des Arts de Mons in Digital Arts, Constantin Vancraeynest followed a parallel course in Ceramics through evening classes in Tournai. This double practice has invited him to think of these means of expression, which are apparently opposed, as a unique vector of research and artistic creation, pushing back the limits of stagnant ceramics in order to explore their multiple facets. Passionate about graphics and programming, he created the Made In Takos agency, specialized in communication and web development, which also offers artists the opportunity to design digital projects. In early 2018, he joined the team at the Maison des Jeunes ‘Porte ouverte’, where he gives video and robotics workshops.
