What the F?
The Thriftsore Boratorium is a
collaboration, with emphasis on lab, of like minded individuals that
are focused on circuit bending, hacking, modifying, accommodating,
rearranging, playing, creating and experimenting with electronic
devices. The thriftsore boratorium explores the nature of the present
by rearranging and modifying found devices and aquired technology in
the manner of roth mobot's Guild of Acquired Technology. With such
direction we
recycle, reuse, and re appropriate potentially lost artifacts. We
believe this creates a “better” environment and a "better" human.
Concepts and ideas
explored are Circuit Bending, Circuit Modification, Circuit Design,
Circuit Chance, Robotics, Visual Design, Audio, Video, Computers,
Video Games, Toys, R/C, Broadcasting, Alternative Energy.
Our forsight is to have a place where like minded individuals
can gather to create, perform, and discuss the future and present of
electronics and art. As things pick up we will offer items and materials for sale to save you the hassle, and time, of trying to put it all together yourself. So bring a toy, musical instrument, radio, or whatever you have in mind to bend, modify, or hack and chances are the thriftsore boratorium will help you make it happen. Not only that it will probably be documented with audio, video, and pictures and then thrown up on this website.
thejunkyardcatalyst and 1/2 Mang have taught a few circuit bending
sessions and are very comfortable and generous with sharing their
knowledge of electronics and art, so we're serious about this, but not serious to be a drag.
Here is living proof of the Thriftsore Boratorium.
1/2 Mang brought himself to one gathering and look what happened.
