In this Lunchtime Talk, Mechanical Sculptor Nik Ramage will share a collection of his useless machines and absurd devices called Adventures in the Absurd. Offering a glimpse into the genesis of ideas - the ones that were realised and the ones that got away. 

Through stories, sketches and machines, he'll explore the creative process behind his work and the role of curiosity, experimentation and failure in bringing ideas to life.
