You’ll build your own device from recycled materials and master the science of capturing light without a lens. We’ll learn to develop our film using household items by "brewing" photos to life using surprising kitchen chemistry, like coffee, turmeric, blueberries and vitamin C. It’s a hands-on blend of art and science that proves you don’t need fancy tech to create stunning works of art!
