    Back by popular demand: our soft-circuit workshop at the V&A.

    soft circuit demo by sophie

    Bring a sparkle to your sofa and learn to make your cushions light up when you squeeze or rattle them.

    By using conductive thread, LEDs, and E-textiles, you will learn how to build a ‘soft circuit’ into a cushion, and make your interiors interactive. The workshop will lead you through embedding electronics into a cushion provided, but feel free to bring your own textiles or garments to embed the circuit into if you wish.
