Maybe you want to expand the sonic capabilities of that old Casio keyboard or maybe you want to make that Furby sound like it's screeching from the bowels of hell. Have you ever thought about tweaking out an iPod for broadcasting signals? In either case, circuit bending is a great way to get into electronics without knowing anything about it. In this workshop, lead by artist and teacher Jeff Thompson, you'll learn how to safely hack apart and bend cheap electronic toys and instruments, different ways to trigger the effects you discover, and some basics electronics that will be helpful in the process. You'll also learn how to add audio-out jacks run into your mixer or amp, reset switches, and answer any questions you may have. No tools or toys needed - just bring something to take notes.
