## Your Creative Workshop Team

We are Aron Petau and Friedrich Weber Goizel — makers, educators, and passionate tinkerers conceptualizing and making workshops for a living in Berlin. 

We bring the world of making to libraries, schools, and youth centers, offering hands-on workshops designed to spark creativity, curiosity, and technical skill.

Whether you already have a makerspace with 3D printers, laser cutters, or plotters, or you’re just starting out — we are adapting. 
We can offer both portable showcases and introductory sessions as well as deep-dive workshops that build on your existing equipment. 
We tailor every workshop to your needs, audience, and space.

- Workshops in 3D printing, laser cutting, plotting, robotics, and 3D design  
- Flexible delivery: on your equipment or with our portable demo setups
- Experience with school groups, libraries, and public audiences  
- Custom workshop concepts to match your goals and participants
- We even help design, curate, and build out new maker spaces!

Let’s co-create a space where craft meets code, analog meets digital, and ideas come alive.
We’d love to help turn your place into a hub of creativity and learning. 
You can contact us for one-time events or ongoing programs.

## Our Profiles

### Aron

<aside>

![Aron](/images/colleagues/aron_petau.jpeg "Aron Petau")

</aside>

Aron has a background in Cognitive Science, AI, and Media Didactics.  
He enjoys tackling tricky software problems and thinking about plastic as a material beyond the 3D printer.  

Already during his undergraduate studies, as part of the research project [UOS.DLL – Digital Learning Living](https://lehrportal.uni-osnabrueck.de/uosdll/), he helped conceptualize and set up makerspaces.  
In his artistic Master’s program, [Design and Computation](https://www.newpractice.net/study), he also focused heavily on technology didactics and technological futures.  

Within the research program [InKüLe](https://inkuele.de) (*Innovations for Artistic Teaching* at UdK), he gained extensive experience with new forms of teaching and learning — from event support through his own livestreaming solutions to designing and running workshops on AI and Virtual Realities.  

Through his collaboration with Friedrich at [studio einszwovier](https://www.gvb-berlin.de/unterricht-plus/arbeitsgemeinschaften/maker-space-studio-einszwovier/), Aron was also able to test his Master’s thesis on design practice as a peer-learning format in school education.

### Friedrich

<aside>

![Friedrich](/images/colleagues/friedrich_weber.jpg  "Friedrich Weber Goizel")

</aside>

Friedrich Weber Goizel first studied Fine Arts at the [Berlin University of the Arts (UdK)](https://www.udk-berlin.de/).  
He later pursued studies in [Humanoid Robotics](https://www.bht-berlin.de/b-hrob) (BHT) as well as in [Design and Computation](https://www.newpractice.net/study).  

In 2022, he was a fellow of the Cultural Foundation’s program *“dive in. Program for Digital Interactions”*, where he explored the use of robotics in public libraries.  
Since then, he has been independently leading “Making” workshops in various libraries across Berlin.  

As a workshop facilitator, he also works with the [Junge Tüftler*innen, Berlin](https://junge-tueftler.de) initiative, running programs at neighborhood libraries, makerspaces, and institutions such as the Futurium.  
Alongside Aron, he co-leads the makerspace [studio einszwovier](https://www.gvb-berlin.de/unterricht-plus/arbeitsgemeinschaften/maker-space-studio-einszwovier/) at a Berlin secondary school and also works as a conceptual and media artist.  

What matters most to him is sparking enthusiasm for technology, providing easy points of entry, experimenting together, and creating a learning environment where playful exploration leads to a creative engagement with technology.
