that is preprogrammed with a really nice meditation sequence. As well as a device that can help you relax and meditate, a nice bonus is that everyone hallucinates beautiful colors and patterns along the way. 

The Brain Machine is totally [https://github.com/maltman23/Brain_Machine_kit open hardware], and created to be hackable, so you can re-program it with any computer, with software that is free to download and use. 

This workshop is for ''**total beginners**'' to learn to solder. 

'''When''': 
   Day 4 (December 30th, Tuesday): 1:00pm - 3:00pm

== Full Description: ==
'''Learn to solder''' by making a way-cool, Sound & Light Machine, that will help you meditate, and hallucinate. It can also be re-programmed to help with sleep, and reduce brain fog. 
 
The '''[https://cornfieldelectronics.com/cfe/projects.php#brainmachine Brain Machine]''' is open hardware, and created to be hackable. 
 
This workshop is for '''total beginners''' to learn to solder. 
 
For ages 10 - 100. 
 
Taught by [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitch_Altman Mitch Altman]. 
 
'''''Optional''': Bring your laptop if you want to go home with the free Arduino software installed on it. Arduino software runs on Windows, MacOS and Linux.''

'''Materials costs''' 
The workshop is free, but if you would like to partake in the hands-on aspects of the workshop, Mitch will have ArduTouch kits for '''€25'''. 

== Workshop Itinerary ==
* Intro to Sound & Light Machines

* Learn to solder. Don't let this scare you! I've taught tens of thousands of people to solder, most of whom have never made anything before in their lives. It is actually a very easy skill to learn. It is also very useful.

* How to re-program your Brain Machine for creating other brainwave sequences
