LVL1′s mission is to provide a shared space for collaborative technical and artistic experimentation in the Louisville area. We are a non-profit organization following the hackerspace model currently flourishing in cities all over the world. Our goal is to create an open workspace where engineers, artists and educators can meet and collaborate. LVL1 is where we begin making amazing things.

Well hello awesome. I’m excited to see what these folks do. One of the first things they’re doing is a soldering workshop next Saturday. I don’t know anything about soldering or microcontroller prorgramming but it sounds badass.

Learn to solder and do basic microcontroller programming in this workshop. The cost of this workshop also covers the materials cost for a freeduino microcontroller kit. Your assembled Freeduino is yours to keep, so you can come up with your own electronic applications. This workshop is intended to teach you necessary skills for further electronic exploration.

Soldering is a skill needed for creating and modifying electronic circuits. A Freeduino is an easily programmable microcontroller. In combination with other electronics, a microcontroller can used for projects such as light controllers, music synthesis, robots, environmental sensors, internet applications, games and many others! Check out the workshop web page for some videos of cool applications. All proceeds go towards the LVL1 hackerspace initiative.

Cost: $50
