We’re off to a great start to the new MyMachine season in Portugal. Imagination and creativity ran through ideas like “A machine that gives flowers to people who are sad on the street”, “A machine that turns anger into happiness”, “A machine to help in the classroom” or “A machine that detects garbage in the street”.

University students, like the Industrial Design students from ESAD Caldas da Rainha, will translate those ideas into Concepts. Designing and creating technical drawings to support the building of the machines later on by the vocational / technical secondary students.

In total, more than 400 students will co-create 16 Dream Machines. A massive pool of co-creating minds all focussed on delivering results. We can’t wait to hearing about how they are learning a major set of skills while engaging in this engaging endeavour.

Many thanks to all students and educators involved!
