In this workshop you’ll get to design the physical interface of your musical instrument, wire it up, and program it to play any kind of sound you like — notes from a prerecorded instrument, a custom synth, or even with sounds that you record yourself in the DDS recording room. We’ll have multiple platforms to choose from, so you can tailor your experience to your interests and background; no previous electronics or coding experience necessary. This workshop is for everyone, whether you’re interested in music, engineering, or both!
About this event
This workshop is part of the series A Tool is an Extension of the Hand: Exploring Technology through Drawing. The series, along with the physical exhibit on the 3rd floor of Tisch library, uses drawing as a starting point to learn about and reflect on technology. This workshop series is a collaboration between the Digital Design Studio at Tisch library and the Center for Engineering Education and Outreach. Our goal is to find ways to engage students at the intersection of engineering and creative multimedia methods. Have an idea for a workshop or event? Get in touch with us at tischdds@tufts.edu!
