The Eyebeam Roadshow is what you get when you mix a rock & roll tour with the talented fellows and resident artists of Eyebeam. It is an event organized by the artists as a way to bring their work to places where it would not otherwise be seen. The Roadshow consists of talks and workshops that are designed specifically to blow minds. So far, the Roadshow has traveled to over 20 locations in the U.S. and UK, spreading open source art and technology wherever it goes. The Roadshow has been invited to 01SJ as part of the Out of the Garage program – a week+ program where independent artists, designers, architects, engineers, programmers, and corporate and academic research programs will work in San Jose’s 80,000 square foot South Hall to create projects for exhibition, performance, provocation, and interaction.

San Jose program highlights include:
- a workshop for collaboratively making a Rube Goldberg installation that will be featured at 01SJ in the Roadshow space,
- a stand-up comedy meets nerdy code workshop,
- making DIY personal power generators, and
- a walking tour of the Alviso salt flats harvesting pharmaceutical overflow.
- learning to make your own firefox plugins

We would love for the Livid Community to join us in this makefest! More info here: http://bit.ly/roadshow_01SJ
