Create, discover, and explore—and be part of the CCAM community! Our Wednesday Wisdom workshops explore dynamic intersections of the arts and technology, and are designed and taught by our team, along with collaborators from both on and off campus. Come to CCAM on select Wednesday evenings between September and May for creativity, conversation, and a pizza dinner.

What are analog synthesizers, how are they made and what can you do with them? In this workshop, innovator Eric Pitra of the electronic instrument company Landscape (Brooklyn, NY) and Ross Wightman (CCAM Technical Manager and Sound Art Series Curator) will share with you how they’re designed and deployed in live performance. Open to all skill levels, from beginner to advanced synth users—or anyone just curious about sound making and/or creative electrical engineering.

Designed and taught by Ross Wightman (CCAM Technical Manager, Curator, Sound Art Series, and Lecturer, Yale College), Konrad Kaczmarek (Associate Professor Adjunct, Department of Music, Yale University), and Eric Pitra (Landscape Electronics)
