GRAND Café @ Ryerson - MAX/MSP Hardware Prototyping 

This is an all-day event that will include a demonstration of some of the hardware and software prototypes currently under development at The Centre for Learning Technology. Afterwards the tools used to create these prototypes will be discussed and then used in a fun and engaging hands on workshop. 

The café will include a short lecture on the prototyping tool MAX/MSP after which participants will be guided through a hands-on activity that will involve building a piece of computer controlled hardware. 

At the end of your workshop you will get to keep your microcontroller so you can go on to create amazing prototypes! 

Participants should have a little experience with basic programming, but expertise is certainly not required.
