Back by popular demand! Learning the basics of electronics is vital for anyone looking to create interactive or new media work. This workshop, geared to artists, is for those new in electronics, or for those who need a refresher. You will learn the basics of electricity starting with Ohm’s Law and work your way up to building simple digital circuits with CMOS chips, transistors and LEDs. You will also learn how to interface these circuits with motors, sensors and other devices.

Workshop Requirements

• No previous knowledge required.
• Participants should bring a notebook, pens/pencils, eraser, ruler, and calculator. All other materials will be provided.
