The Breadboard Band

Another via Brian Comnes. "The Breadboard Band is a performing band that uses breadboards made of freely constructed electronic circuits to play music. We produce audio and visual expression through the most minimal, fundamental elements in the form of showing the electronic components of an instrument while directly touching and forming the electronic circuit by hand." Title link takes you there.

  2. My breadboard is always plugged into my modular. I use all the parts from a 300-in-one kit + some other junk I have (e.g. some 555's) to have fun with the modular.

    It's very fun to build 'wrong' circuits to signal process in very strange ways. Very inexpensive too.

  3. hey, that's a good/neat idea, for a lot of reasons... along similar lines, i'd like an analog computer with banana jacks.

  4. I saw this great analog computer on ebay (some educational thing) that I really should have 'bought it now' on. It was 650 bucks, but HUGE with lots of crazy operations. I haven't seen anything come up on Ebay like it since.
