I taught the electronics classes in the Department of Art and Technology Studies at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago for 6 years beginning in 1995. During my time there I developed a sophisticated curriculum for teaching hands-on electronics to artists and designers. It was one of the first programs of its kind at the time and helped to lay the groundwork for what is now commonly known as the Maker’s movement which has a strong emphasis on DIY electronics and micro-controller development.
