  I was introduced to circuit bending through the fantastic book Handmade Electronic Music. It's filled with simple projects on how to make musical instruments using circuit boards and household items. My inner-geek has never been so satisfied.

  Is your guest familiar with the artist Sonic Boom (aka Spectrum)? I saw him do a show with a half dozen speak & spells. He would enter a word into the machine, which would speak it back. He would then bend and distort the sound of the machine. Put all together, it made amazing music.

  Isn't it also possible that many people toss products when broken because those very objects have become increasingly designed so as to discourage opening them and attempting to fix the problem? Much like looking under the hood of a car?

  I thought this interview was very insightful and a great look into the art of circuit bending. You can see what he is up to on his website at http://www.casperelectronics.com
