It covers basic considerations of electronic vacuum technology, particle acceleration, de- & re-construction praising the empty space. Danger, sparks & entertainment! Practical experiments will be performed including VGA signal generation, interference, signal injection, modification, graphical animation without computer. Participants are free to bring: - old VGA monitors - Arduino or equivalents with arduino 0012 installed (0015 produces some jitter due to optimisations) (http://www.arduino.cc) - GNU/Linux, Mac OS, Windows - cut off VGA cables. Additional monitors, equipment and Arduino-equivalents will be available. Printed documentation/sourcecode will be delivered Jo Grys (aka FRGMNT) is a lowtech/hitech noise scientist who lives & works in Berlin. http://tob.de.vu Fee: 10 euros (all materials and food!) Please email m...@1010.co.uk to reserve a place (strictly limited) ---_______ Background: Workshops led by field-expert practitioners extend over realms of code and embedded code, environmental code, noise, transmission and reception, and electromysticism. Workshops solely utilise free software and GNU toolbase.
