I would like to install my microscope onto a sub-woofer with a petri dish on it. The petri dish will have a mixture of pond water and sawdust. The vibrations in the petri dish will create an analog reactive visual feedback to any music that is played. This can be presented in two ways; a live audio-visual performance, or a stand-alone video and sound installation. | I would like to install my microscope onto a sub-woofer with a petri dish on it.

Use the PDF link below to view the '''DIY-Microscopy Poster'''. Amel, Nils and I decided to create this poster as a guide and to provide an easy to read overview of our projects. The poster combines all of the important steps and tips that should be helpful for first time builders to avoid difficulties when they begin their own DIY-Microscopy project. | |||
