(Note that I went with the music angle to keep things simple, but motion-y projects are equally welcome.)
Musicmakers @ Etsy
Hosted by MAKE and Create Digital MusicJoin us for an evening of handmade music technology, from DIY, open source, and custom hardware to handcrafted code and patches. Bring your own projects (in-progress or complete) for an informal show and tell, or just come to check out what other people are doing and learn how to get started in DIY music yourself. Phillip Torrone from MAKE and Peter Kirn from Create Digital Music will be on-hand with music projects and kits you can make and connections to online communities for music tech DIYers. We're building a series of regular meetings for makers in the NYC area, with a first concert planned for later in the spring. Experts and newcomers welcome.
Thursday, 3/22
7:00 pm - whenever
At Etsy Labs in downtown Brooklyn, near the Manhattan bridge (more about Etsy Labs)Think show-and-tell rather than formal presentations, so if you've got something that's half-finished and barely working, please bring it. (I imagine that's what I'll have!) And if you just want to look, we're happy to have you stop by.
