Photos of our #paperwear workshop at London’s V&A

On Friday, the [Connected](http://makeitconnected.com) team – Alex, Ana and I – were invited to run a workshop at London’s prestigious [V&A museum](http://www.vam.ac.uk/) as part of their [Friday Late](http://www.vam.ac.uk/content/articles/f/friday-late/) series. Needless to say I was thrilled – but more importantly, we’re all super happy with the results and feedback.

 

 

Being at a place as prestigious and as lovely as the V&A is fun in and of itself – but engaging there in an interactive workshop – and a discussion – about the future of technology and our relationship with wearable tech in particular is a whole different level. (More over on the [Connected site](http://makeitconnected.com/2014/07/a-great-night-of-building-wearables-at-the-va/).)

We have two sets of photos – a [professional one](https://www.flickr.com/photos/125660897@N02/) as well as [my own snapshops](https://www.flickr.com/photos/thewavingcat/sets/72157645508893317/) – and here are some impressions:
