The goal of this course is to let students experiment and create electronic circuits and 3D prints. The class is divided into two main topics: 80% Electronics 20% 3D Printing. Each topic while have several modules. After each module students will have created a circuit, model, or 3D print. Students will be introduced how to create physical interfaces by learning how to program the Arduino micro controller. They will learn how to use sensors to translate physical interaction to output a sensory experience. Finally, they will design and print 3D models. Students will learn basic fabrication,modeling techniques, and processes used in 3D printing.

This course aims to take a student from competency to proficiency in the scene shop. A successful student will be able to take a scenery project from the drawing to completion, either alone or leading a small crew. Skills covered include: construction techniques, project planning, tool and procedure selection, joinery, time and cost estimation and carpentry. Coursework will focus heavily on lab and project work.

The course is designed to familiarize the student with the basic principles of rigging, the equipment in general use, and the appropriate safety practices and procedures. By the end of the course the student should be able to:  Estimate weights of objects and determine loads imposed on the rigging system  Identify and properly connect essential rigging hardware  Tie a selection of important knots  Operate a counterweight rigging system  Rig a theatrical aluminum truss on chain hoists  Specify complete lists of materials required for basic rigging situations
