Syntjuntan

Yesterday I was at a kind of synth sewing workshop at malmöfestivalen with Aneta.
 It started with a not too melodic concert with the people leading the workshop. I can't honestly say I was disappointed when it was cut short due to the heavy rain, even though I'm like syntheziers and exprimental music. it was interesting to watch and listen to for a while anyway.

Then we got to the fun part where they handed out the "sewing kits" and everyone got to make their own synth. The main idea was to make a really simple synth with a circuit, capacitor and LDR(ligh dependent resistor) but instead of soldering the pieces together we used metallic thread to stitch them together.

Materials and instructions.

Almost finished.

A video of my synth in action. I forgot to film the grand finale of the workshop when everyone performed together.. but trust me, your ears are grateful that I did.
