Windmill and Whirligig Garden


Create a working windmill, a kinetic art sculpture, or a contraption of your own design, and set it in motion with a "cricket," a tiny programmable computer developed by the MIT Media Lab. Control the speed of your creation using your heart rate, temperature, breath, or touch sensor. Karen Wilkinson and Mike Petrich of the Exploratorium lead this workshop for children ages 6 and up and their adult companions.
