Mossphone, DIY [90minn] ALL PUBLICS
Mossphone (or Musgófono) is a speculative way to listen, sense and intra-act with moss https://vlorenzolana.myportfolio.com/muskaria
Hack, build and play a theremin-like DIY instrument with moss, conductive wire and a microcontroller. We will get through a brief introduction to programming and electronic
music: Arduino, serial communication, MIDI (sound) protocol and capacitive
sensing principle (theremin).

DIY LASER MICROSCOPE (90 min)
Visualization of microscopic universes within a drop of water in moss. With a laser pointer, a plastic syringe and cardboard we can project life microcosmos of living beings that exist in it.

DIY webcam microscope
"To use a simple usb webcam as a microscope, only a few modifications are needed. In short, a small hack to the optics of a standard webcam with an adjustable focus-lens, allows to create video data, with a magnification of around 100 to 400x (depending on the model) at a working distance of a few mm. The highest magnifications can be achieved by inverting (putting upside down) the lens. Addition of good lighting by the use of leds allows to create images using a bright-field method (shine through the stuff) or dark field method (look at the reflections and scattering) [...]"
