$50 ($40 for Cabinet subscribers and Machine Project subscribers). Fee includes all required material; you take home what you build. Space is limited; register here. Organized by Machine Project, Los Angeles.

Learn to solder in this three-hour workshop presented by Machine Project. Participants will learn to solder by building a primitive synthesizer. During the workshop, the band will play music to solder by. As people get their synths working, they will join ing in playing some simple repeating musical patterns. At the end of the workshop, everyone will play a simple and inevitably out-of-tune musical piece together.

Taught by Mark Allen, Director of Machine Project and Brian Crabtree and Kelli Cain from monome.
