/ About this event

​A PREVIEW OF AN IMPOSSIBLE WORKSHOP · SF TECH WEEK · OCT 8, 3:00–5:00 PM · FRONTIER TOWER, 7TH FLOOR · FREE · CAPACITY LIMITED

​The Oct 8 preview is free — RSVP, because capacity is limited. Then pre-sales open for tickets for the full build experience to create your own 16-foot robotic angel (or devil) wings over multiple weekends in the full Impossible workshop.

​Meet one of the founders of Titan Gauntlets, a kickstarter that succeeded in less than a day, meet the creator of Impossible workshops, see and try on the angel and or the devil (dragon) wings, learn about the Impossible workshop ethos and process. If you sign up for the full workshop experience every cohort walks out of the experience carrying something no store stocks — and takes it somewhere a store will never reach.

​To be clear: this is the preview, not the workshop experience. Nobody builds anything on Oct 8 — two hours where you get to touch, fell and wear the finished wings and have rthe first chance to enter the pre-sale sign up into the build cohort.

​See the robotic wings in action. Try out the titan gauntlet, learn about embodied intelligence and how some builders will add an AI harness to augment the wings with autonomic actions, and meet the people who built them.

​Step in front of a moonscape backdrop and spread the angel wings — or the devil (dragon) pair. By the way, please don't try them from the roof of Frontier tower. On the moon, 1/6th gravity means the wings would help you glide; if you actually tried flying off Frontier Tower, you'd have a spontaneous disassembly event and you really aren't SpaceX.

​Three people are in the room, and all three will tell you how the build actually happened: Mickey McManus, who originated the Impossible Workshops; Karan Pandey, co-founder of Titan Gauntlets — the modular wearable AI gauntlet fully funded on Kickstarter in 30 minutes; and Ja'Shon Wright, founder of the fashion house Haus of Hyte, and co-leads the workshop.

​You'll also meet Frontier Tower's Otherminds team — the people who will help a lucky few build OpenClaw autonomous behaviors into their wings, so the wings start making decisions of their own. Patron and Angel tiers get the bonus workshop.

​Pre-orders open that day: a limited number of early build slots for the 2026 fall/winter cohorts, claimed first-come at the event.
