|Date|

May 21, 2011, from 11am til you're "dead".
To last longer - lunch brake 1 hour somewhere in between

|Abstract|
The hands-on introductive workshop to home made galvanic battery and using electrolytes naturally found in foodstuff/organic materials as a low power energy source and as a musical instrument (at the same time), to transfer an electrical confusion into sound by having it travel through electro(al)chemical environments of natural cells and simple electronic circuit powered by those batteries.

|Content|

How it works; Hands on (low power); Disassembling consumer batteries; Assembling food batteries involving various kind of foodstuff, liquids and conductive matters; Wiring cells; Voltage and current; Raw or cooked; Assembling a simple sound-module on Hex Inverter IC on a solder-less breadboard.
Playing around with your electrolytic environments, per- formatively or site-specifically

|Participation|

Every one who likes to experiment with "noise" of low power, lo-fi and low-tech.
10 participants maximum.

|Remember to bring|

-Your creative energy for the whole day
-Different foodstuffs: boiled potato(!), raw hard vegetables/ fruits and some acid-based liquid (vinegar, wine, coca-cola etc)
you find in your kitchen in any amount.
-"Dead" batteries Alkaline and Lithium/"Energaizer" 1.5-9V (if you have some)
