SUMMARY:A Celebration of Electronics
DESCRIPTION:\n"In our digital world\, I feel it is important to remember an
 d celebrate our analog electronics. While digital electronics offer conven
 ient\, neatly packaged chunks of information\, our world is analog. Inform
 ation arrives to our senses continuously. Since our eyes and ears are impe
 rfect sensors\, digital electronics can model and mimic continuous informa
 tion\, but if our eyes were better\, we could see the pixels or the 60 Hz 
 refresh rate on a computer monitor. If our ears were better\, we could hea
 r the individual bits of an mp3. Analog electronics are necessary to inter
 face with the world\; they are in power chargers\, cell phone antennas\, s
 atellites\, defibrillators\, pressure sensitive touch screens\, microwaves
 \, life support systems\, cars\, smoke alarms\, heaters\, stereos\, somewh
 ere within nearly every electronic we use daily. Analog electronics still 
 deserve\, and will continue to deserve\, celebration.\n\n\n\nIn A Celebra
 tion of Electronics\, the audience consists of transistors which are stan
 ding or using op amp and capacitor furniture to take in the show. Vacuum t
 ubes take the center stage and play instruments for their adoring transist
 or fans. Capacitors and diodes make up the guitar\, an ultrasonic transduc
 ers drum set keeps the beat\, and the lead singer belts melodies into a re
 sistor microphone. Six discrete LEDs above the stage provide concert light
 ing and the three headphone speakers make up the 'large' speaker box stage
  right. To unite all the components\, several printed circuit boards (PCBs
 ) serve as floor\, stage\, and backdrop."\n\n\n\nTyler Hutchison\n\n\n\n\n
