Do you want to learn how to make machines sing? In this hands-on workshop, you will explore the fascinating world of circuit sounds. Join electronic instrument designer Cris Edwards and explore how to make circuit board patterns. Cris’s interactive installations aim to restore a sense of play in our relationships with all kinds of machines.

During this interactive session, you will discover how circuit boards are configured to produce incredible sounds. Cris will walk you through the inner workings of a variety of instruments made from old payphones, gamer controllers and chess boards. Then you will have an opportunity to design and build your own custom circuit board to take home.

This session will be hosted in the gallery, in the heart of the DISTRACTION exhibition. All materials supplied. Suitable for ages 13 and above, and no prior knowledge or experience is required. Assistance will be available during the session.
