Paper Circuit Demo - LED + Push Pull Oscillator (Phillip Stearns)

"I can't take full credit for the paper circuit idea. Peter Blasser was the first artist I knew of working with paper as a circuit substrate. There are scores of others by now.

The idea here is not to use the paper circuit as a finished product, but as an educational tool to facilitate rapid prototyping of very simple circuits in a way that is easy for the beginner to understand how connections are supposed to be made.

Prototyping with perforated circuit boards may offer a more rigid and durable solution, however, in the classroom setting it can become difficult to illustrate exactly what connections need to be made.

Though printed paper circuits are not as rigid or durable, they do provide a platform by which students can learn basic circuit assembly skills before moving on to basic CAD circuit design.

This project was developed in association with Anyang Public Art Project."
