BEGINNER ELECTRONICS AND CIRCUIT BENDING
Two sessions x 3 hours
Price: $60 or $50 with Extended VIVO Membership
(Materials included, worth $10)
Instructor: David Grove

This course will cover some basic theory of electronic principals that is essential for beginning to work with this medium. From there we will look at some of the components that make up simple circuits and that create the building blocks for more complex circuits. Students will learn some of the basic skills needed for electronic work such as soldering, breadboarding, and reading a schematic. These skills will be used to build a simple audio amplifier and experiment with different input options such as contact microphones. We will also have a look at how to get started with circuit bending and modifying existing circuits.
