Kim
projects :
- I'd love to find a way to build a system that turns on/off a powerful LED device according to environmental data (from a sensor or from online data) for a sculpture I want to make in autumn. I have a bunch of old modules and pieces from an old vidéoprojecteur.
- I should bring a midi/Arduino device that allows us to make a midi controller with whatever we'd like to use in the use bank of sensors and modules that will be there. I have resolume on my laptop and we can do interactive projection mapping if there's a vidéoprojecteur available
workshops I can offer : sensitive collective cartography. In 2 hours drawing the IRL and online space on witch each of us organize/work and think about political/artistic/tech bridges between all these. I'm bringing the paper and pencils for it.
I could offer a welding workshop if there's a way to find material on site. I didn't gather enough energy to bring my welding machine and my grinder by train from Paris haha.
what I want to learn : I would like to learn a bit of programming and electronics so I can incorporate interactive elements in my sculptures when I'll be back in France ✨
SalomeK
based in Zürich
I bring

Interests
- Discussion and exchange about world in translation and transformation …decentralized, connected, local, hands-on, perspective changing, surprising, providing confidence, edges, stability, potentials, group dynamics, sensitive experiences, what holds it together, fears and other forces...
- Painting Lab, Meet People, Learn Stuff, Kids Stuff, Nature, Dancing, Yoga
- Making some connections for further projects
Zach P
I am:
- First-time Home Made camper who will now type too much......
- Artist from U.S. working with sound installations, performance, and radio (mostly field recording and processing, including "expanded" transducers like contact mics, hydrophones, RF listeners, etc)
- Teacher/technician at an art college (Cooper Union School of Art in NYC).
- I share documentation of my artwork and technical resources on my website https://zachpoff.com
- Also bringing my son (10 yrs) who is learning to solder and always willing to help out with fun projects
I plan:
- Continue work-in-progress ultrasound "slow looper" instrument based on Teensy (records stereo audio into several buffers at high SR and plays at decimated rates with effects and different playback logic). Let's listen to the bats and insects!
- Experiment with piezos to create ultrasound pulse patterns for instrument above (echo feedback rhythms?)
- Continue implementing stereo time-stretching on Teensy (like loFi Paul's XStretch)
- Deploy a "drop rig" recorder to catch the nocturnal mysteries of the mountains :)
- Happy to give a little talk about the technical & aesthetic qualities of "expanded" field recording practices
I bring:
- Field recording equipment (with contact mics, photodiode "light listeners", RF coils, etc
- Small electret mic capsules with ultrasound response
- Teensy micro-controllers and Audio Shields (SGTL5000 audio codec)
- ESP32 audiokit board (perfect for playing with audio on micro-controllers)
- SDR dongle and ATS-mini receiver for exploring the radio waves
- For the kids: Here's a link to a great poster: "50 tools to Learn by age 12" https://lekkersamenklooien.nl/lekkersamenklooien/hello-world/
Hopes and Dreams:
- Meet people and make sounds together!
- If anybody has WiFi HaLow gear (WiFi over LoRa radio) I'd love to try it, especially within EU-aligned regulations.
- I notice that SGMK has done workshops on local LLMs for coding. I've been amazed by Claude, but also disturbed by the ethical costs.
- I hand-etch PCBs, and always curious about how other people do it
- My ultrasound looper needs some knobs and fader caps. If there is some colorful filament I'd love to print some. (I use OpenSCAD which makes it easy to share design files.)

Miranda
Artist etc. based in Luzern. I plan to make some funky cases for various half finished electronics projects (synths, effects pedals, analog meter, solar lamp). Also I'd like to try some Iontronics (ions as charge carriers instead of electrons), bio and organic circuits experiments. If anyone would like to join a practical research session on this it would be cool. I'll bring stuff to make a proof of concept organic semiconductor, and then biomaterials ingredients, casting silicone, various types of carbon based materials, things for various electrolytes, things for interfacing with plants, etc. It would be great to join some jams. I could bring another mixer, and a microphone.
Dani R.
- Arriving: Monday afternoon, July 27th
- What I bring:
I am working on a project for a kinetic, self-sufficient clock. It is powered by a mix of different solar cells using ATtiny (402) chips, a makefile, and programming via UPDI. It includes a real-time clock (RV-3028 RTC), a motor driver (DRV2605L) over an I2C bus, a low-current DC motor, as well as sound and LED control. The programming is done with the help of AI, and I want to share my first-time experience and trials. Regarding solar harvesting (e-peas AEM10941) to drive the clock: I am researching different solar cells (monocrystalline, polycrystalline, amorphous, and organic) simultaneously, feeding into a single Lithium-ion capacitor (250F). To what extent is this possible? Does it make sense? What is the difference between indoor and outdoor use?
- What I need:
To test different solar cells at the same time, I might need a few more (milli)ampere meters for testing.
