Program Description

Event Details

Discover the surprising science of sound by building a working microphone from a recycled can! Using a sensor, basic wiring, and a bit of creativity, participants will create a unique “contact mic” that captures vibrations and transforms them into audio. This program is a fun introduction to electronics, sound design, and upcycling. No prior experience needed.
