This workshop combines three of the basic building blocks of the longer 
Neanderthal Electronics workshop (TL072 op-amp comparator, 4093 gated 
oscillator & LM386 audio amplifier) to create a very crude, 
caveman-style analog computer for the processing of vocal input through 
a microphone. Participants will learn some analog and digital 
electronics basics to create an experimental prototype on the solderless 
breadboard, then recreate the circuit with permanent connections. They 
are also expected to bring their own box, case or other object in which 
to construct the final circuit. The last part of the workshop will touch 
on how this circuit can be expanded later on to include all kinds of 
mixers, modulators, distortions and filters through the use of other 
cheap, easily obtained parts.
