SUMMARY:☀️ Solar Music Synth Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join us and build a tiny solar-powered square wave generator on a breadboard. No soldering required! The workshop is free to attend\, but you’ll need to purchase a kit for $12.50 to complete the project. \nHere’s a link to the how-to zine we’ll use. \nAnd here’s a diagram of the oscillator circuit we’ll build: \n \nRegister:

SUMMARY:🎤 Audio Editing with Reaper
DESCRIPTION:Bring a laptop and learn the basics of audio editing! We’ll start by making a recording of a poem as a group\, passing the mic after each line. Then you’ll learn to remove pauses and mic handling noises using Reaper\, a free-to-use digital audio workstation (DAW) that works on Mac\, Windows\, and Linux. \nNo registration needed for this one. See you there! \n

SUMMARY:🎶 Pico MP3 Sampler Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Create your own digital audio sampler using a Pi Pico clone board! This project requires some soldering. It’s recommended for folks who have soldered once or twice before\, but beginners are welcome too. For the programming portion\, you can bring a laptop or use one of our lab computers. \nYou’ll need to buy a kit for $16.95 to complete this project. We’re suggesting a $10–25 donation for the workshop. \n➡️ Instructions & example code \nHere’s what’s included in the kit: \n• RP2040/Pi Pico board\n• wood block w/ pilot holes\n• 3.5mm stereo jack w/ screw terminals\n• 2×4 push button keypad\n• 2 push button switches\n• 10 screws\n• tiny screwdriver\n• 20 header pins\n• 4.7 uF capacitor\n• 9 port to port jumper wires\n• 2 port to stripped jumper wires\n• 1″ stripped wire\n• 3″ tie wire\n• 8 plastic spacer rings\n• micro USB cable w/ data \nRegister\nRegistration for this event is now closed. We'll offer it again soon! \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:💾☀️ Permacomputing + Solarpunk Meetup
DESCRIPTION:The Permacomputing + Solarpunk meetup is every other third Wednesday at Iffy Books! You can join us in person (404 S. 20th St.\, PHL) or remotely via Jitsi Meet. \n➡️ Virtual 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) \n
