This workshop will introduce participants to a range of techniques for creating solar powered sound making devices that can be applied to instruments, installations, performances, and more. We will discuss the history of the field, common conceptual approaches, and a number of technical methods.

Three techniques for building instruments will be demonstrated.

• Direct drive acoustic instruments
• Solar powered analog synthesis
• Sonifying light frequencies

This workshop will be taught on Zoom by Alex Nathanson.
