VIVITA World Travel Machine

Registration is opened for VIVITA members.

A Rube Goldberg machine is an intentionally comically complex piece of machinery, where the final operation is preceded by a number of operations linked together like a domino effect. The machine got its name from Rube Goldberg, an American cartoonist who drew many such machines.

Vivita is operating in 7 countries and has 12 studios all over the world. Question that often pops out is how to bring all the vivinauts and the Vivita community together without having to travel to the other side of the world? For this we have some exciting news: We are inviting you to Vivita World Travel Machine!

In each Vivistop, all vivinauts together with their parents can join in to building a huge Rube Goldberg machine. The key point is that the whole Goldberg machine has to be connected from one country to another. Each country should use VIVIWARE Cell electronic modules. After all the parts have been assembled, we’ll share the LIVE Goldberg Machine on Saturday, December 3 9AM EE time. The workshop series will be both in English and in Estonian.

Register via Fienta and let’s start building! The meeting times are following:
Thursday, December 1 3PM-6PM
Friday, December 2 3PM-6PM
Saturday, December 3 9AM-10AM

For inspiration, check out the Goldberg machine which was built at Vivistop during Vivita summer camp 2021.
