This workshop is suitable for newcomers to SMT as well as more experienced hobbyists who are looking for a reliable method for building projects using SMT. We will cover the basics of surface mount parts and the tools necessa ry to work efficiently with them\, including a temperature controlled hot p late reflow system which you can build. And we will offer a hands on build session where you will go through all the steps in populating a PCB with pa rts and doing the reflow soldering process to end up with a working project .\n\nNo tools or prior experience is required although\, if possible\, plea se bring a soldering iron\, some type of magnifier (reading glasses\, visor \, etc)\, a desk or work lamp and a good pair of fine point tweezers. We wi ll have some tools available to use during the workshop.\n\nThis workshop w ill take place at the Pacific Northwest College of Art (1241 NW Johnson St) in Room 207 from 1 - 5pm on Sunday\, June 26th.\n\nYou will get a circuit board and parts kit for use during the class that is yours to keep.\n\nCost : $8\n\nPlease register by emailing jim at jimeastman dot com LAST-MODIFIED:20110621T075655Z LOCATION:Pacific Northwest College of Art SEQUENCE:0 STATUS:CONFIRMED SUMMARY:Surface Mount Workshop -- PNCA TRANSP:OPAQUE END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20110529 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20110530 DTSTAMP:20120217T085423Z UID:9pgnp3e0l7iukrrg7gkqcicuck@google.com CLASS:PUBLIC CREATED:20110511T070051Z DESCRIPTION:http://dorkbotpdx.org/wiki/synthesis_workshop_in_pd\n\n__s_o_u_ n_d_____s_y_n_t_h_e_s_i_s__\nf e a t u r i n g __ P d\n.......dorkbotpdx is proud to announce.......\n\nA unique\, free workshop geared at teaching so und synthesis fundamentals as explored and demonstrated through Pure Data.\ n\nFascinated by orgies of towering analog synthesizes from the 60s?

The fine folks at A boutUs will be hosting us for this event\, which takes place December 7th a t 6PM. AboutUs is located at 107 SE Washington St\, Suite 520. Feel free to bring snacks and drinks to share. Please spread the word!\n\nCollin Oldham : The RT (radio trowel) and The Cellomobo\n\nCollin spent the 2005-2006 aca demic year at Stanford's Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustic s (CCRMA) where began to develop the electronic musical instruments he is p resenting today.\n\nThe RT (radio trowel) uses a capacitive sensor array ba sed on Max Mathew's radio baton to detect the position of the trowel on the playing surface. The trowel's movements control sound synthesis parameters \, including filters which process live sound from a contact mic attached t o the trowel.\n\nThe cellomobo is a computer music instrument that attempts to model the behavior of a bowed string. It gives haptic feedback to the b ow at audio rate to simulate the stick-slip action of a bowed string. This feedback stream finds it way back into the audio stream\, creating a unique hybrid of digital and analog synthesis.\n\nCollin Oldham is a cellist who has performed around the world with such varied and luminous artists as Pla cido Domingo\, Kiri Te Kanawa\, Rosemary Clooney and Aretha Franklin. He's active as a session player\, and has recorded with the Decemberists\, Richm ond Fontaine\, and Elliott Smith\, among many others.\n\nShelly Farnham: Do rkbot Dorkbot Dorkbot + Seattle\n\nI am that rare combination of geek\, art ist\, and scientist and when I first met Dorkbot Seattle I felt like I'd * finally* found my people -- where technology is artistic medium\, science i s art\, and geeking out is just a whole lot of fun. My one complaint was t hat Seattle Dorkbots were not collaborating enough\, and when I took over a s Seattle's "Dork Overlord" it was my main mission -- to cultivate the crea tive geek community. \n\nIn this talk\, I will review the best of Dorkbot Seattle's art\, geekery\, and science\, and discuss how we have worked to increase cross-disciplinary collaboration through our meetings\, workshops\ , and art shows.\n\nShelly Farnham received her Ph.D. in Social Psychology at UW in 1999\, after which she worked at Microsoft Research for seven year s studying community technology. A few years ago she quit to join the star t up world\, and is now co-founder of Pathable (professional networking for events). In her "spare" time she paints\, does collaborative installation s\, and instigates people to have more fun creating stuff.\n\nSteve Davee: Not to kill a thought: The impact of language on curiosity\, creativity and scientific inquiry.\n\nThis talk explores how easy it is\, even with the b est of intentions\, to stifle creative thought and true learning when it co mes to working with children in the areas of science\, math and engineering . We will investigate examples of simple but powerful changes in language\ , with the intention of provoking the best of creative potential and shared inquiry.\n\nSteve Davee is a math and science teacher at Opal Charter Scho ol and a Media Specialist for the Center for Children's Learning at the Por tland Children's Museum. He is a recovering Biochemist with a background in physics and over 20 years of volunteer and work experience in education.
