Let’s make something that makes noise!
Erik wants to invent a wind powered synthesiser, during the prototyping stage he comes across different challenges including fidelity and lag of key input. He calls on his Strawbees team mate Kristofer, together they end up having a pretty awesome jam session!

School of Ridiculous Inventions Series
Hi, my name is Erik, welcome to my School of Ridiculous Inventions! I am an inventor, toy maker, engineer and model airplane builder. At Strawbees we are not afraid of failure – quite the opposite, it’s all about ‘learning by trying’. Let’s have some fun and build cool things!
I will base the structure of my inventions on MIT Media Lab’s Lifelong Kindergarten group: ‘Creative Learning Spiral’ and NASA’s JPL Education. If you want to know more about Strawbees Learning pedagogy head over to https://learning.strawbees.com.
Let’s not waste any more time – hit play and let the game begin 🙂
Erik Thorstensson, Inventor and Co-Founder of Strawbees
