Piezo Disc from a Tweeter
Piezo discs are awesome. They are quite a cheap way to get some pretty effective contact microphones. Nicolas Collins‘ Handmade Electronic Music recommends some interesting ways to get your hands on them, plus some suggestions on how to turn them into a decent, waterproof, record-anywhere microphone.

I was asked to create a sound piece in response to Durban artist Vaughn Sadie’s exhibition titled Situation. I created a quadrophonic piece using only samples from recordings of the exhibition.
Circuit Bend – My Own Band
Dec 15th
This is another circuit bend that I have used continuously for the past couple of years. Like the Hello Kitty toy, all the abuse has rendered it too fucked to mess with nowadays, so I use samples of the toy.
To do something like this, you would need some small screwdrivers, some wire and switches. Unfortunately you’ll also need a soldering iron and solder.
My First Circuit Bend – Hello Kitty
Nov 15th
This is the very first circuit bend I ever did, probably before I really knew that there was such a thing as circuit bending. The results of this bend encouraged me to try other things. Basically this is all based off a Hello Kitty keyboard I bought at some cheap toy shop. It probably cost me R10.
An added bonus is that I did it without any soldering at all.
