Ever wanted to flip a coin, but all you had were electronic parts? With PiB's Coin Flip Circuit kit, you can simulate the action of flipping a coin with just an electronic circuit! With the press of a button, the coin will "flip" as the flashing of LEDs alternates, settling on either "heads" or "tails". Creating a variation of a multivibrator circuit, participants will gain practical knowledge of components such as resistors, capacitors, and transistors. Participants are then taught to utilize this knowledge in changing the speed and duration of the LED flashes. Kits are created by UC San Diego's Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering student led organization, Project-In-A-Box. This is an in-person workshop.

The Case Study House Program: Then and Now Guest Speaker: Barbara Goldstein The Case Study House program, created by John Entenza, editor and publisher of Arts & Architecture magazine, was an experiment that came at the right time in the right place. The materials shortages of World War II were ending, the GI Bill helped veterans purchase new homes, and the population of California was growing. The program promoted the American Dream of home ownership while offering a vision of modern architecture and living. The houses were advertised broadly, and thousands of people flocked to visit them, admiring both their design and the contemporary furniture and modern appliances they featured. In this lecture, Barbara Goldstein, publisher and editor from 1980 to 1985, of the briefly revived Arts + Architecture, will discuss the program, her friendship with Esther McCoy who wrote extensively about the houses, and the relevance of the Case Study houses today. Enjoy a fascinating lecture, delicious brunch, live music, and unmatched ocean views! Access to MCASD's galleries also included with ticket purchase. Barbara Goldstein is an independent public art consultant and architecture critic focusing on urban design and placemaking. She was the editor of the anthology Arts and Architecture: The Entenza Years, which features a collection of Entenza's articles written during his storied tenure at the magazine. Ms. Goldstein was the Public Art Director for the City of San Jose Office of Cultural Affairs; directed the public art programs in Seattle and Los Angeles; and was editor of Public Art by the Book.
