Arduino Workshop

Jimmie Rodgers is a full-time hacker, circuit bender, and artist. He designs open source hardware kits and travels around the world teaching people how to solder and make things. For nearly a decade Jimmie worked as a desktop, and then systems administrator at various companies. In his spare time he tinkered with electronics, building things, and teaching others to do the same. In September of 2009 he quit his full time job to become a full time hacker, and has been supporting himself with kit sales and workshops while continuing to travel around the world. His most popular kit has been the LoL Shield, which is a 14×9 LED matrix that you attach to an Arduino micro-controller."

Come by and learn about electronics. I'll be talking about Arduino, Circuitbending, and life as a full time hacker. I have some of my kits for sale, as well as a beginners circuit bending pack. The workshop will be fairly unstructured, going where the participants want it to.
