Fernando Daguanno (Ar)

is born in Argentina, living at Rio de Janeiro since 2015. Electronics technician, self-taught maker and designer. His professional career includes experiences in events production, educative actions and corporate communication. Alquimétricos is a collection of open source didactic toys: building blocks to mount structures and learn-while-playing about geometry, maths, architecture, mechanics, physics, chemistry, and much more.

The initiative is focused on the design of DIY educational materials which are meant to be produced using a wide range of procedures, from ultra-low-cost-low-tech toolset (scissors and nails) to high-end-FabLab-standards (laser cutter, CNC milling, 3D printing), using an equally wide-ranged material sort, including recycled packaging plastics, rubbers, cloths and cardboard composites throughout textile-embedded polymers, organic fibres or even lab-harvested fungus. Alquimétricos are meant to play, learn and share.

He will be in Zadar providing workshop and participating in the ROUND TABLE : “What is the place of makers and fab labs in the politics and future strategies of the EU”
