[spectre] Wearable synth workshop/ May 3, 4 & 5 / NK Berlin

[Oskoff]

Hi All, the next days it will be a nice workshop @NK Berlin !!

May 3rd & 4th 14:00-18:00 May 5th 18:00-22:00 *Wearable synthesizers with
Constanza Piña*

Wearable synthesizers is a practical workshop focused on electronics
manufacturing for textile projects. During the workshop we will learn to
develop soft and flexible circuits, exercising sewing conductive materials
and combining elements of textile world with electronics.

The idea is to develop an analog synthesizer circuit that we can attach to
our body in a soft, supple and smooth way to interact, and that allow us a
greater performance, between the device and the body of the performer.

No previous experience or knowledge necessary!

1º day

-Introduction to electro-textiles and analogic electronics
-Basic electronic components
-Reading circuit schematics
-Getting started with oscillators

2º day

-Getting started with soft-circuits
-Making resistors, switches, sensors, and experimenting with conductive
everyday objects.
-Embroidery and sewing with conductive thread and electronic components
-Start to build the wearable synthesizers (personal projects)

3º Day
-Conclusion and testing of wearable synthesizers

Duration: 3 days, 4 hours per day (12 hours) May
Fee: 65 euros (50 euros + 15 euros materials)
