During the workshop contestants will be introduced to basic electronic parts. We learn how to read a schematic, and to transfer this to a breadboard. A breadboard is a tool for experimentation with electronics, and a simple way to learn basic electronics. After some first experiments we will build a simple sound generator.

The next step will be to add a sequencer that will control the pitch of the oscillator. Each contestant can make minor changes and design the way his instrument works in and unique way. When everyone is satisfied and all projects are working we can move on finalise out projects. First thing to do is to draw a schematic of the unique instrument you’ve created.

The last step will be to transfer this to a soldered working prototype created with only the used parts and copper wire.
