Join Coaxial guest instructor Tim Caldwell to build your own video-instrument, the recurBOY.

NOTE: This ticket is for entry only, there is an additional $45 materials fee to be paid on arrival that is not subject to membership discounts. Capacity is limited to 10 guests.

recurBOY is a DIY video-instrument for live performances. It can playback & process video-clips, added GLSL-Shader Effects, and be modulated in real time with the built-in knobs or via an external CV. At the heart of the system the is the low-cost Raspberry Pi Zero and the work of r_e_c_u_r to create a DIY video-instrument.

In this workshop guests will do basic soldering to build the recurBOY and at the end of the workshop have a video-instrument to take home. Soldering irons, wire cutters, and solder will be provided, however if you have a soldering iron, stand, or other tools you prefer feel free to bring them.

Lunch, soft-drinks, and snacks are provided.

"with today's surge in interest for hardware audio equipment there are many options for artists to perform with dedicated sound instruments. this is still not the case for real-time video performance. both Korg and Roland have discontinued their video-samplers, leaving nothing commercial to fill this void.

r_e_c_u_r is an open-source community and educational project empowering artists to build the tools they need. Join us for a group session of electronic instrument making! Together we will solder and test diy video-instruments that each participant can take home."
