Build an Electronic Musical Instrument!
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!
