Odds & Ends @ The End Of The Week

Pete Edwards of Casper Land in Troy is offering another workshop in circuit bending at the Arts Center of the Capital Region in Troy. “The first class went great,” Edwards explains. “It was lots of fun, and everyone left with a working instrument.”

The two-day workshop, “Making Music Through Electronics Hacking and Circuit Bending,” will be held from 12:30-4pm Saturday and Sunday (January 16-17). The deadline for registration is Tuesday (January 12).
