Make Solar Sonic

Week 4 of the "Village Solar" course at Manhattan Comprehensive Night and Day High School introduced students to a basic electronic circuit that converts light into sound.

The course was created by Solar One, a Manhattan-based non-profit, and consists of a sequence of hands-on projects that have students constructing and mastering solar applications suitable for rural areas of the developing world . This workshop, "Make Solar Sonic" created and facilitated by electronic sound artist Phillip Stearns, offered students an introduction to electronics that will help prepare them for a more complicated four-week solar lantern building project at the Cooper Union.
