Basic Electronics Primer
- Electricity — the invisible thread behind every patch.
- Switches — the gesture that chooses, the silence that waits.
- Resistors — shaping flow through friction and form.
- Capacitors — holding charge, shaping time.
- Inductors — coiled memory, resisting change.
- Transistors — switches that think, amplifiers that whisper.
- Diodes — one-way gates, shaping flow and fate.
- Op-Amps — difference engines, sculpting signal and silence.

Basic Synth Primer
- Switching — the art of routing, gating, and choosing signal paths.
Let’s Build
- Primitive VCO: Flip-Flop to Voltage-Controlled Oscillator
- Op-Amp Mixer: Summing Signals with Elegance
- Passive Filter: Sculpting Tone with Simplicity
- LFO from VCO: Slowing the Pulse, Shaping the Flow
Hands-on modules for poetic synthesis — minimal parts, maximal meaning.
