Press The Button Podcast for March 26, 2008

Lotsa random stuff – Brezhnev, Nurse With Wound, some things I’m working on.

Horrific EPIC FAIL moment about 5 minutes in. Laptop w/ iffy battery became unplugged, shut down. PANIC!

upcoming appearances

I’ve got a couple of appearances coming up soon:

  • April 4th, at Notacon in Cleveland – I’ll be giving a presentation titled “Your Circuits, Let Me Help You Bend Them”. Originally envisioned as a circuit-bending workshop, it seems to be evolving into a more general DIY electronic music overview. If you’re coming and have an interesting instrument you would like to show off, let me know – I want to try to have a “show and tell” section to the presentation. If there is interest in some hands-on musical hacking, comment and we’ll try to get some space and time for a session.
  • April 18th and 19th, at Penguicon in Troy, Michigan. I’ll be administering(?) two workshops – one on the Arduino platform on the 18th, and one on “circuit-bending” (but more likely, playing with Paia 2-transistor ribbon controller kits). Actual circuit-bending may occur, but you may wish to contact me ahead of time.

If you’re attending either of these, I have checklists of useful information and tools/parts to bring here (for circuit-bending) or here (for Arduino)

Also, you may want to stay tuned here or at my LJ for any updates.
