Workshop planning

11:00-11:45 Introduction, program and the concepts of the day, examples. Demo of soldering, explanation of MIDI Madness website
11:45-13:00 One starts with soldering the MIDI Madness Maker, making connectors and testing with pre-uploaded code. The other starts with e-textile sensor crafting, testing with the existing MIDI Madness set-up if needed
13:00-13:30 Testing all of the MIDI Madness boards, and deciding in groups what kind of textile instrument you want to make: wearable, modular, stand-alone. Then work on the e-textiles together. Don’t forget to think about the connection between the MIDI Madness Maker and the textile sensors - hard-soft connections can also be designed!
13:30-14:00 Lunch break
14:00-15:00 Make your own e-textile MIDI keyboard/interface! If you want, it’s possible to change the MIDI notes that you’re sending (or play around with the code if you know your way around the Arduino IDE)
15:00-15:15 MIDI Madness jam!
15:15-15:30 Clean up & wrap up
