A Los Angeles Hackerspace
Tonight: Handmade Music LA
There’s a little bit of cross-posting going on around this little event we’re having here, but we want to make sure that you (yes, YOU! No, not the person behind you, YOU) come out and see what we’ve got going on.
There will be hacked acoustic instruments.
There will be blinking lights.
There will be repurposed MakerBots.
There will be noise.
There will be melody.
There will be fun!
More info is at http://handmademusic.noisepages.com, but all you really need to know is, be at CRASH Space tonight at 8.
In the meantime, here’s a little preview of the Guitamaton, one of the instruments that will be on display tonight.
Come by and say hello!
