TH_models is a design making toolkit for exploration of peer-to-peer objects using open hardware and lo-fi materials. A range of electronic objects has been designed that demonstrate the fabrication of prototype devices from available modules and tools, at an affordable price, and an accessible entry point. The designs are published online and made available for self-fabrication as well as demonstrated in workshops such as this. This studio will give participants from the TEI community a hands-on chance to construct an object of their own from a design template created especially for the studio, and to then build on it designing their own variations or customizing the given model. Lastly and most importantly they will be able to experience how these electronic objects can work together, and form expressions of networks.
