Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

Fans will get bent out of shape if they miss the first book to cover circuit-bending- 'bending', for short - the method by which an electronic toy or a device such as a keyboard is short-circuited and modified to create an entirely different sound. Written by the inventor of the technology, this book covers the tools of the trade, shows how to build a bending workshop, and reveals secrets that will have readers of all levels making sweet music in no time. Readers learn basic bends, body contacts, and other bending skills, as well as ways to create bent instruments from a variety of popular toys and electronic devices. This book features some of the author's own unique creations.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Reed Ghazala developed the technique of circuit-bending in 1967, following the chance encounter of a transistorized amplifier with an unidentified object in his desk drawer. He can often be found writing music, sculpting, taking photos, hunting mushrooms, building things that fly, or indulging in other creative pursuits as befits a true Renaissance man.
