Making Space: Linkages: Life Science Centre

Cardboard automata and linkages are a playful way to explore simple machine elements such as cams and levers, while creating a mechanical sculpture.

Working with simple materials, cardboard automata and linkages are easy to get started, and can be as complex as your mechanical sculpture ideas.

They are a good example of integrating science and art into an activity that you can make as individual as you like.

This Making Space activity will run throughout the morning.
