Description:
|
Kite Flyers of Tasmania Inc invites all whom are able to make it down under to our Annual Kite Workshop Weekend. This year, we are excited to announce the theme of ’Creative Kite Making’ with Istvan Bodoczky. The workshop should be an amazing one as we are bringing Istvan Bodoczky all the way from Hungary for this special event. Istvan is an expert on asymmetric kites!! During the workshop, we will examine the different aspects of kiting where creativity plays a role. And this is far beyond just doing original designs, new shapes, structures or patterns! Adaptations or “rephraseings” of old, well known models, experimenting with new materials, improvising (which we often do on the kiting field) or taking the challenges of flying found materials all call for our inventiveness. This workshop does not need special skills; it is for both novice or experienced kite-makers. The purpose of the workshop is not necessarily producing a new kite but to stir up creativity inherent in everyone. During this workshop participants may work alone, in pairs or in groups on different suggested challenges. We use simple materials like paper and bamboo and anything inexpensive, “local materials” as these ensure enough freedom for experiments to start with.
