MIT Edgerton Center Seeks HS Students for Remote Workshop: DIY Musical Instruments, Oct. 19-22

The K-12 MakerLab team at the MIT Edgerton Center seeks to recruit 15 to 20 high-school students to try out a new, online extracurricular workshop, DIY Musical Instruments, before it is released to the public. It takes place on four afternoons, during which students explore how musical instruments make sound, then tinker with materials, then invent an original instrument, and finally use it in a collaborative sonic art project. The workshop is free, entirely remote, and will take 8 hours:  4PM-6PM on October 19-22. Go here to get permission forms and apply by 12PM on October 15.
