2020-03-31 15:00 - 18:00
Are you interested in electronics?! Have you ever dreamed of building a personal droid? Do you want to work for NASA?! This is not going to get you there because it’s for beginners. BUT, it’s a start. This will be a mixture of information and comedy… technology and philosophy… nature and wisdom… the force and a new hope… for surviving in your parent’s house for the indefinite future. Meet Kevin, a student with little to no qualification to be “teaching” this course… Meet Madison… she works here.
