sketchPatch as far as Umea…
Earlier this month sketchPatch went about as far north as you can get to take part in the Open Source Embroidery Exhibition. (6th June - 6th Sept)
Its a really interesting exhibition that includes work and projects exploring“participatory production and distribution methods.”
I got the opportunity to introduce the site to people personally which was cool. It was great to see people could really quickly get making basic shapes and animations. :o)
Umea is a town in Sweden about 8hrs by train north of Stockholm, and has 24hr daylight/twilight! Its a really weird feeling. Check this out, us after the exhibition opening around a fire at about midnight…
no flash!
and this is a v friendly (and possibly blind) hedgehog that smelt the cheese…
