Hello Frameworkers,
I'm organizing a hands-on workshop series and performance evening focusing on
the creation of hybrid audio/visual artworks.
This series explores the tools and techniques involved in the creation of
installations, interactive environments, and film/video/sound performance.
Emphasis will be placed on tactile interaction and manipulation, and the
experimental use (or mis-use) of common technology and re-purposed equipment.
This beginner’s course is suitable for anyone who has ever wanted to hack their
projector, TV, or game controller, but didn’t know where to start. The series
will consist of 3 classes and a performance evening covering a variety of
common and accessible techniques including Open Source Programming, Arduino,
Circuit Bending, and working with interfaces.
Workshops cost $5 each!!! (BYO computer & Arduino, check the link below for
tech requirements).

Machado, Sofy Yuditskaya & Eric Barry Drasin, and Alex Nathanson & Dylan Neely
Date & Time: Friday, June 28th – 8pm
Entry: $5 -or free if you register for all three workshops
Workshop 1 – Circuit Bending and Arduinos
Instructor: Peter Edwards
Date & Time: Saturday, June 29th – 2pm
Materials Fee: $5
Introduction to circuit bending with Arduino. This workshop will demonstrate to
students how to hack simple circuits and re-purpose children’s toys in the name
of sound. In addition to bringing your laptop and Arduino, please bring a
dollar store children’s toy to be modified. The device must be battery operated
and generate sound.
Workshop 2 – Programming in Pure Data
Instructor: Sofy Yuditskaya
Date & Time: Saturday, July 13th – 2pm
Materials Fee: $5
Introduction to the open source programming language Pure Data. The workshop
will focus on working with sound and video.
Workshop 3 – Interacting with Arduinos and Pure Data
Instructor: Merche Blasco
Date & Time: Saturday, July 20th – 2pm
Materials Fee: $5
This class will provide an introduction to basic electronic sensors as we
explore the possibilities for interaction between Arduino and Pure Data.
Thanks! Hope to see you there!
