SUMMARY:⚡ Beginner Soldering: Make a DIY Guitar Cable
DESCRIPTION:On Monday\, January 20th at 10 a.m. & 11:30 a.m. we’re running a relatively quick and easy soldering workshop\, suitable for total beginners. You’ll strip some wires and solder 1/4-inch plugs to the ends\, creating your own guitar cable. \nYou can get a kit with 6 inches of cable for $4.25\, or 4 feet for $13.50. We’re also suggesting a $5–$10 donation for the class\, notaflof. \nRegister for 10 a.m.\nRegistration for this event is now closed. We'll offer it again soon! \n  \nRegister for 11:30 a.m.\nRegistration for this event is now closed. We'll offer it again soon! \n  \n

SUMMARY:💡 Solder & Code: Make a 3-Button Keyboard with a Pi Pico
DESCRIPTION:In this workshop you’ll build and program a customizable 3-button USB keyboard using a Pi Pico microcontroller. You can program each button to type a chunk of text (e.g.\, your email signature)\, enter a keyboard shortcut\, or launch an application. It’s easier than it sounds! \nHere’s what we’ll do: \n• Solder three push button switches onto your Pi Pico\n• Install CircuitPython firmware\n• Install Adafruit HID libraries\n• Copy example code to your Pi Pico\n• Adjust the example code to make your own custom keyboard \nWe’ll have a limited number of computers to share\, so bring a laptop (Windows/macOS/Linux) if you can. \nYou’ll need to buy a Pi Pico Push Button Interface Kit for $9.75 to complete this project. We’re recommending a $5–$20 donation for the class (notaflof). \n \nRegister:\nRegistration for this event is now closed. We'll offer it again soon! \n  \n  \n \n

SUMMARY:💾🌾 Permacomputing Meetup
DESCRIPTION:The Iffy Books Permacomputing Meetup returns on Monday\, January 20th from 6:30–8:30 p.m. EST. You can join us in person at Iffy Books (404 S. 20th St.\, PHL) or via Jitsi Meet. \n➡️ Meetup Link\nFrom Permacomputing.net: Permacomputing is a more sustainable approach to computer and network technology inspired by permaculture. Permacomputing is both a concept and a community of practice oriented around issues of resilience and regenerativity in digital technology. In a time where computing epitomizes industrial waste\, permacomputing encourages a more sustainable approach\, maximizing hardware lifespans\, minimizing energy use and focussing on the use of already available computational resources. We do this because humans are part of nature and technology is an extension of humans\, and we acknowledge that technology has been used to harm nature. We want to find out how we can practice good relations with the Earth by learning from ecological systems to leverage and re-center existing technologies and practices. We are also interested in investigating what a permacomputing way of life could be\, and what sort of transformative computational culture and aesthetics it could bring forward. If you want to know more\, please start reading about what is permacomputing in essence\, and then dive into its principles. \nPermacomputing Aesthetics: Potential and Limits of Design Constraints in Computational Culture by Mansoux\, Howell\, Barok\, and Heikkilä (2023)
