Whether it’s the workings of the internet, psychedelic mushrooms or hacking game consoles, Rein van der Woerd tries to distill ‘magical’ technologies into something you can do at home. Rein tries to use found materials and kitchen sink ingredients, and believes strongly in right to repair and open source. In Rein’s current residency at Creative Coding Utrecht they research permacomputing: a philosophy applying ecological and long term thinking to computers. Through hands-on workshops and DIY, Rein tries to recover the digital utopianism of Web 1.0 and the first wave of personal computers.
