OpenTechSpace, TechShop, and Tempus Dictum will present an “Arduino Cult Induction” Workshop at TechShop on Saturday, May 9 2009, from 1 to 5 pm.

In this workshop, you will build a complete and functional Arduino-compatible micro-controller (Dorkboard), and will upload and run a program on it. The Arduino development environment is very popular with artists and other creative people, and can be built and programmed even if you have little hardware or software experience.

On Monday November 9, between 9am-5pm, come to PDX Jelly, Portland's new free co-working group. http://WorkAtJelly.com

We'll each work on our own thing in the same space. Meet new friends, share common interests, trade ideas, brainstorm, get some work done, and maybe even get some business referrals.

Bring your laptop or an old-fashioned notebook, and something you're working on, whether it's an online business, an art project, coding, writing or something else.

Souk has offered us room for the day. They're located at 322 NW 6th Avenue & Everett, Suite 200. Buzz #200 at the door. http://soukllc.com/

RSVP with your name, the time you expect to arrive, and what you're working on: " Alex Linsker, 9am, revising the sales site for www.ProductPerks.com " http://wiki.workatjelly.com/JellyInPortland

The EMF Explorer Badge is an electromagnetic frequency sensing circuit that lets you listed to the world of hidden electromagnetic frequencies around you.

This workshop will involve building the EMF circuit on a breadboard and experimenting with different values. Then, there is a chance to build your own EMF Explorer kit and join us on a sound exploration walkabout.

The completed PCB can also be worn as a badge on a lanyard, used to illuminate yourself at night, and be ready to sniff out hidden EMF signals with the use of headphones. No previous electronics experience is required to appreciate and use this badge, and it’s a great way to learn more about your world by exploring the different properties of our surroundings. The kit requires soldering and runs on two AAA batteries.
