What is Design X?
At ICFF you can get in the digital fabrication game through DesignX, a series of hands-on workshops bringing together leading experts from digital design and fabrication. These workshops—on the topics of Digital Tools, Fab On-Demand, and Cloud-Based Apps—will show you how to harness cutting-edge technology to bring your ideas to reality.

Who should attend?
DesignX is geared toward innovative designers, manufacturers, representatives and anyone who is interested in learning about the digital tools and technology trends that are revolutionizing design today. Join in for an inspiring four days of educational programming and networking events at ICFF 2013. 

About this workshop?
I'm excited to be teaching two sessions on Sunday, May 19th as part of this year's Design X event.  The first is a Introduction to Physical Computing with Arduino where we'll learn the fundamentals of Physical Computing including basic circuitry, different types of input sources, and output options, and how to integrate all three to create a working prototype.

The second session is an Introduction to Responsive Design using Firefly.  In this session we'll learn new Interactive Prototyping techniques using the Firefly plugin for Grasshopper which facilitates real-time communication between the digital and physical worlds – enabling the possibility for you to explore virtual and physical prototypes with unprecedented fluidity.
