CPU Dumplings Workshop is a cooking experience to learn the fundamentals of computation. Participants perform all the operations of a CPU (Central Processing Unity) by slicing ingredients, seasoning, filling, folding and cooking their own dumplings.

Riding on the workshop developed by Taeyoon Choi, a group of Hong Kong-based artist-educators will further adapt and deliver the workshop in a local context, in which they will perform together with participants to simulate a CPU instruction set. The workshop will cover various topics including the Control Unit, Arithmetic/Logic Unit, the Von Neumann architecture, memory and storage, serial and parallel processing.

As an organisation committed to bringing digital and coding literacy into a wider context, the Writing Machine Collective stresses the importance of demonstrating the STEAM practice in all-level education sectors and inspiring new generations of interdisciplinary innovators. Apart from the general public, we also welcome educators/teaching staff of any subjects to take part in this cross-curricular “STEAM*” experience. By incorporating artistic insights and technological knowledge, we hope to guide participants to make connections between concepts and encourage them to experiment with a cross-curricular STEAM setting in their workplace.

CPU 餃子工作坊是一個學習電腦運算基本原理的烹飪體驗。參與者將通過製作餃子的過程，包括切碎食材、調味、填餡、包餃和烹煮等工序，模仿電腦 CPU（中央處理器）的操作。

此工作坊由南韓藝術家崔泰潤構思，並由一群本地藝術家導師為工作坊引入本地元素，與參加者共同化身成「人類電腦」，模仿電腦中央處理器執行各種指令。內容涵蓋 CU（控制部件）、 ALU（算術及邏輯運算部件）、記憶體、存儲器、馮紐曼結構（Von Neumann），以及序列/並列處理（serial/parallel processing）等概念。

文字機器創作集致力推廣數碼及程式編碼素養，我們認為社會迫切需要在各級教育部門實踐 STEAM 教學思維，以激勵新一代的跨學科創新者。除普羅大眾以外﹐工作坊亦歡迎老師/教職員參與是次 STEAM* 跨學科學習體驗，親身經歷結合藝術元素和技術知識的另類教學法。我們希望藉是次活動引導參與者連結、整合不同學科領域的概念，並鼓勵本地教育工作者實踐 STEAM 跨課科教學。

* Vegetarian or vegan options are available
工作坊提供素食或純素食選擇

* STEAM：S＝ Science（科學） T＝ Technology（科技） E＝ Engineering（工程） A＝ Art（藝術） M＝ Mathematics（數學）
