This is a video all about our Scratch workshop. We facilitated a workshop for 10 weeks sponsored by Citizen Schools. The sessions were held in a public school with about ten 13-year-olds. We hope you can get an idea or two from this and learn from any mistakes we made.
Two members of the Life Long Kindergarten team visited the Mexico City computer clubhouse at Faro de Oriente.

We are here to work with Geetha on a project. The project has may fronts: lab in a bag, scratch/pico, and working out a future collaboration. But underlying this is the people we are here for and this video gives a barely-scratch-the-s urface summary of the people who we are here for.
this is a jacket which allows you to play music by touching skin-to-skin. it was made at MIT Media Lab by Jay Silver (tech designer/producer), Jodi Finch (creative design), and Sam Cohen (craft design)
This is an extremely rough prototype of Scratch on a Mobile Phone. It's basically just the Scratch Board and a lot of imagination in pretending that it's a phone.
I was in this magic shop outside of Boston, and this guy was telling a story. He had on these "historically stereotypical Asian" glasses, and he started to do some impressions for the customers.
