Description:
Inspired by the thought of putting an amplifier into a Altoid's can from the CMoy headphone amp designs out in the world.nnI needed something that could actually power speakers at a low voltage as well as being small enough that it too could join in on the Altoid's can fun.nnEnd result is not at all close to being bad, which by default makes it good.nn1 watt of power (theoretically), and a gain of 200

_stone-garden-02.webp "Stone Garden 02 is a sound installation for contact microphones, home made LM386 amplifiers, stones hanging on wires and small speakers. nnThe piece explores the resonance of physical materials using high levels of amplification and a direct connection between microphone and speaker provided by the wire to create feedback. This feedback is then modulated by muting key points of resonance forming on the wire using alligator clips.nnStone Garden 02 was developed and explored in several configurati")
