You've probably heard lots about Arduino. But if you don't know what it is, or how you can use it to do all sorts of cool things, then this fun and easy workshop is for you. Arduino is an amazingly powerful tool that is very simple to learn to use. It was designed so that artists and non-geeks can start from nothing, and make something cool happen in less than 90 minutes. Yet, it is powerful enough so that uber-geeks can use it for their projects as well. This workshop is easy enough for total newbies to learn all you need to know to get going on an Arduino. Participants will learn everything needed to play with electronics, and use a solderless breadboard to make a TV-B-Gone remote control to turn off TVs in public places -- a fun way to learn Arduino (and electronics) basics. At the end of the workshop attendees get to take the TV-B-Gone they have built away with them.

Learn how to program LED strips. It's super easy and fun to make your life trippy. For total beginners. Abstract Learn how to light up LED strips with a cheap Arduino, and make your life trippy. For total beginners -- no knowledge needed at all. Full Description LED strips have become really inexpensive. Lots of people have created inexpensive methods of controlling their color and brightness. This workshop shows one way to control LED strips, and to make them do what you want. We will use a very inexpensive Arduino clone. I'll show you everything you need to know to use existing programs -- as-is, or to hack on -- to control the colors in your world with LED strips. Workshop Itinerary * Intro to Red-Green-Blue (RGB) LEDs * Brief intro to Arduino * How to use an Arduino to control an LED strip * Some demos of programs you can download Attendees take the kit home at the end of the workshop.

Anyone can learn to solder! Anyone can learn to make music, sound (and noise!) with computer chips! Learn to solder together a cool, powerful music synthesizer, and learn to make cool music, sound, and noise! ArduTouch is an open hardware Arduino-compatible music synthesizer kit with a built-in touch keyboard, and with built-in speaker/amplifier. This workshop is for total newbies to learn to solder. This workshop is for total newbies to make their own ArduTouch music synthesizer and learn to make music, sound (and noise!) with computer chips. Attendees take the completed synthesiser home at the end of the workshop. The ArduTouch comes pre-programmed with a way cool synthesizer. And I will show you how to re-program it with other way cool (and totally different) synthesizers.

Learn to solder together a cool, powerful music synthesizer and learn to make cool music, sound, and noise with a computer chip! For total beginners.
