Week 2 – Pixillation
Week 1 – Back in the NAS Lynx!
This was the first workshop of six that we are running at the NAS Lynx Centre in Weston Super Mare as part of the Exploring Diagnosis project.
Last time we were here we had workshops for larger groups of people, perhaps 20 at once, and we set up simultaneous activities like a green screen, iPads and modelling clay for animation.
This time, Dom (workshop leader) and Lena (the centre manager) discussed smaller groups for people who expressed an interest in animation.
Dom writes
People are often reluctant to re-do a thing that isn’t right the first time because “it took ages”, though the “ages” in question are usually between 5 and 10 minutes. I’m hoping to get to the point where the animators are happy to look at what they’ve done and if it isn’t quite how they hoped perhaps make it again, taking into account what they’ve learnt.
EU-AIMS scientists answer questions from the autism community about EU-AIMS research
Sixty-six individuals submitted written comments on the consortium’s research after these events, most were questions that autistic adults or parents of individuals with autism had raised. We summarised their questions in this video and put them to the scientists at the EU-AIMS 6th annual Meeting in 2017.
