Description	We will show you how to make your own geeky bag with a cat, ghost or self designed motive and blinky LED-eyes (even programmable if you like). No experience with sewing or electronics necessary – just bring some curiosity and a bit of time. We provide a quick and easy-to-make version but also a sophisticated version that is programmable if you like. Just drop by and have fun!

Location	Note: The location on the map does not represent a reservation of a location and might not represent the actual place, where a assembly can be found. The place can be changed within the form of the assembly by anyone. It will be updated by the assembly itself on day 0 or day 1 as soon as the actual location is known.

Projects	Sitting together with people and helping them building their own Electronic-Geekbag. Which is an (open-source) project we came up with, to teach life forms (even the young ones) about: - Wearable electronics - Arduino

Planning notes	If possible, place us next to the "Team32" Assembly, because there are members from there that will also take care of the Geekbag Assembly. We bring some desk lamps (which shouldn't be too much of a problem for our neighbors) and a sewing machine, but we don't have any special needs. We plan to sell kits at pretty much the prices we bought them
past congress review	This will be the second time. Last year went very well and we were happy with the location and the round table. * http://www.heise.de/bilderstrecke/bilderstrecke_3057111.html?back=3057100;bild=3 (3 Bilder) * https://events.ccc.de/congress/2015/wiki/Assembly:Electronic_GeekBag The Assembly and Workshops will be similar (apart from us having more kits, which we sold out on day 2 last time)

Electronic GeekBag

- a workshop assembly for electronic sewing -

What?

We like to get you interested in sewable electronics. Therefore we put together a project we call "GeekBag" to give you a project to try this out for yourself.

We have kits (a limited amount), support, all the tools you need.

So just drop by and hang out, discuss whatever sewable related stuff and if you like, build yourself a bag.

Bag?

The "easy" kit is ~10€ and contains:

• the bag
• a motive
• a coin-cell holder
• 2 LEDs

The "smart" one is ~30€ and contains:

• the bag
• a motive
• a Microcontroller-Board (Adafrutit-Gemma)
• a brightness sensor
• a LiPo-Battery
• either 2 normal LEDs or 2 NeoPixels

a LiPo charger is sold separately for 7€ if you need one

The "smart" bag can be programmed by Arduino and we have example code that:

• turns off the eyes when the sensor gets bright
• occasionally blinks, winks and some 'hypno'-animation

Were?

We'll let you know when we know ourselves (We'll also try to make us findable via c3nav)

Resources?

All workshop material is free (CC-BY) and can be found on GitHub:

https://github.com/Mariemurasaki/Electronic-Geek-Bag

which includes:

• Documentation (including examples where you can buy the parts yourself)
• Shapes
• Source Code
