Dorkbot Sydney is a regular event for “people doing strange things with electricity". Born from the original New York faction initiated by artist/engineer Douglas Repetto, Dorkbot now exists in over 75 different cities around the world. The Sydney faction has been running since 2006 in artist-run-spaces and has now taken residence at the College of Fine Arts, University of New South Wales. Taking the standard format, Dorkbot Sydney is a free monthly event, open to the public, drawing people from all fields to present their independent projects, finished, or in progress.
