Solar Powered Synth Workshop 7th – 9th of April 2022

Ok, so the synths aren’t really solar powered at all and a Gameboy’s not a synth but please come out to Manilla (NSW) and get involved if you’re nearby. There’s loads of other workshops including art making and other sustainable/creative activities and Dr Popalotacorn will play records.

We’ll be there from the 7th – 9th of April making annoying noises, all powered by rechargeable batteries plugged into a solar setup hastily cobbled together. Thanks to everyone we bugged about rigging up solar and to Renewable Manilla for orchestrating. https://communityrenewable.com.au/project/manilla-solar-project/
