Mahitahi Breathe Workshop - Morning Workshop (Tuku 26)

Join us in person for the Mahitahi Breathe Workshop .

Mahitahi Breathe is a technology project, creating a visual representation of the temperature of the water along the length of the Mahitahi river using a series of interconnected fish artworks. Temperature directly relates to the amount of dissolved oxygen: the ability for fish to breathe. These workshops will allow participants to help construct the fish artwork and monitor water temperature for the project.

Morning workshop: create the display fish. Afternoon workshop: Electronic sensors & data collection. Come to the morning or afternoon workshop or both.

Age: This workshop is best for people over 10 yrs.

Please book seperately for the morning and afternoon sessions.
