Workshops
Oceanography-themed workshops will be held ashore in parallel with the sailing.
Workshop 1: "The open hardware and marine biology collaborative "
Digital technology is changing the pace of innovation and the possibilities for cooperation. Starting with an underwater camera project between a fablab and Ifremer, this workshop will decipher the development levers for hardware, software and participatory research in the marine environment.
With Emmanuel Poisson-Quintondevelopment manager of the Explore incubator, co-founder of the Konk Ar Lab fablab, of the Centrale Nantes master's program in low-tech engineering, and of the Kosmos project.
Workshop 2: Bee wraps and tawashi fabrication
Are you interested in low-tech and/or zero-waste and want to adopt eco-friendly alternatives in your everyday life? Join our workshop to discover two practical solutions: the bee wrap and the tawashi!
The bee wrapor reusable food packaging, is an environmentally-friendly alternative to plastic film or aluminium foil. Made from cotton fabric and beeswax, it preserves your food while reducing your use of plastic.
The tawashiis an eco-friendly sponge made from old clothes or recycled fabrics. By making your own tawashi, you can say goodbye to disposable sponges and help reduce waste.
During this workshop, you'll learn how to make your own bee wrap and tawashi, while discovering tips on how to use them in everyday life. We'll discuss the low-tech philosophy and all its everyday applications! Join us for a practical, eco-friendly experience!

To round off the day in style, we'll be hosting a jam session, preceded by an opening concert in collaboration with Music. A jam session is a special occasion where musicians gather to play together in an improvised way, without necessarily having planned in advance what they're going to play. This event allows artists from diverse backgrounds and musical styles to meet, explore new ideas and create spontaneous music in a friendly, collaborative atmosphere.
Musical is the AGEPoly commission dedicated to promoting music on the EPFL campus.
