Blockchain. Fact. Fiction. Future
3 november - 4 november 2016
HACKLAB - Deploy a Plantoid
A hacklab on programmable blockchains (smart contracts, traceability, collaborative economy, etc.) exploring new forms of synergies between humans, code and objects. Led by Les Usines Louise, Bricodeurs & Cellabz.
Saturday 5/11, 10:00 - 17:30. Fee: 30€
Registration mandatory through this form. Max 15 participants.
An autonomous robotic "plant" powered by a blockchain
After a hands-on introduction to blockchain, you will participate in the remix of a Plantoid, a blockchain-based self-creating and self-propagating artwork created by the collective O'KHAOS, at the intersection of economics and art.
From writing smart contracts to the improvement of sensors, making Plantoid sensitive to its environment, the team, led by Les Bricodeurs, Cellabz and Les Usines Louise, will guide you through the exploration of new forms of interaction between humans, code and objects opened by the blockchain technology.
Requirements
The hacklab is open to artists, hackers, designers, geeks, or anyone curious about blockchain, with no prior coding experience required. Basic experience in Arduino and/or web programming is nevertheless very welcome!
Bring your own laptop. Workshop material can be used on site.
About the workshop leaders
Isabelle Humbert-Radtke (FR)
Sculptor & engineer, Les Usines Louise
Isabelle Radtke is sculptor and bio-hacker at La Paillasse Saône. She created the LUL project to give shape to an intuition she called “tools to think with your hands” that shifts the creative process towards sustainable and frugal solutions. These tools will be invented and created by means of sketches, poetic and technical periods. As an open project, can get involved in its research. Doing so, Radtke hopes to instigate a co-creative process to develop an art form that would belong to those using and making it.

Xavier Lavayssière (FR)
Entrepreneur, lawyer, developer, Les Bricodeurs
With IT skills, entrepreneurial experience and a good knowledge of public institutions, Xavier has a strong interest in emerging technologies from a technical, business and regulatory point of view. The subject of smart contracts and the digital formalisation of legal relations on the blockchain fascinates him. He is currently working with Isabelle on a plantoid, a sculpture that finances its descent through smart contract. Lavayssière has founded Les Bricodeurs, a group of designers, artists, engineers and technicians to help disseminate digital culture, especially among young people with "Ada Workshops", and is part of the global movement of civic tech developing technical projects. He also co-founded, a few months ago, the School of Design and Digital Crafts to support large groups, artisans and freelancers in their growing competence on digital issues with a pragmatic and multidisciplinary vision based on a network of sites and expertise.
