SUMMARY:🎵 Velocities 2 in West Philly
DESCRIPTION:We’ll be tabling and running a workshop at VELOCITIES 2 on Saturday\, September 16th\, presented by Meantime. The event will be at the Leader Theater in West Philly (4102 Lancaster Avenue). It’s free! We’ll be there 12–6 p.m.\, with performances continuing until 9. \n➡️ Get a free ticket for the festival\nFrom noon to 2 p.m. we’re running a free workshop called Store data on a cassette tape & play it back!\n \nIn this workshop you’ll convert text data into audio using the program minimodem\, then record the audio to a cassette tape. Then you’ll use minimodem to play back your text onscreen in real time. We’ll provide computers and tape decks\, and everyone who participates will get a couple free cassette tapes. \nWe’ll also teach you to experiment with different bit rates and encoding formats. We’ve been using Bell 202-style ASCII encoding at 100 baud (bits per second) because it works reliably and plays back at a comfortable reading speed. Using these encoding settings\, a 60-minute cassette tape can store ~34 KB of data. \nIf you want to record a specific text file to a cassette tape\, we recommend bringing it on a USB drive. We can’t guarantee we’ll have internet access on the day of the event. \nRegister for our workshop at noon:\n\n  \nDownload the\n  MP4\n  video.

SUMMARY:☀️ Solar Circuit Bending Workshop at The Chocolate Factory
DESCRIPTION:On Saturday\, November 12th from noon to 2 p.m. we’re running our Solar Circuit Bending Workshop at The Chocolate Factory (2201 Margaret St.\, PHL). It’s part of a music & electronics festival called Velocities\, which runs from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Hope to see you there! \nIn this workshop you’ll build a tiny solar-powered musical instrument. You’ll start by building a simple oscillator circuit using two NOT gates to generate a square wave. Then you’ll add a push switch and a potentiometer to adjust the pitch. Beginners are welcome! Each participant will get a free kit with a breadboard and all the components. \nThis workshop is full! \n  \n\n\nSaturday November 12th\, Meantime will host Velocities\, a one time special event in the Philadelphia Blumenthal Chocolate Factory. Highlighting analog culture\, the event features a vendor marketplace curated by Now+Then Marketplace\, modular synth sounds by Modular on the Spot Philly\, and a series of workshops and musical performances! \nThe event takes place on the first and second floors of the currently vacant\, concrete-frame factory whose historic structure was the birthplace of the iconic SnoCaps\, Goobers and Raisinets among other candies. The market section will host 40 local artists\, artisans\, and collectors with handmade and vintage products\, including vinyl\, books\, art\, and fashion\, as well as local food and non-alcoholic beverage vendors. Attendees will be invited to adventure through a modular synth garden with Philadelphia-based musicians creating unique sounds in the reverberant space. Musical equipment manufacturers and artists will be on hand to help guests see\, touch and test-drive new and vintage modular components at the synth swap meet. Workshops led by Iffy Books and Sound Museum Collective are open to the public throughout the day on site. Rounding out the evening \, attendees are welcomed to a quadraphonic performance by artists including draft/ patch/ weave\, Chris Powell\, Tina Kalakay\, and Phil Yeah. \n\n\nEvent info on Eventbrite \n \n
