[sudo-discuss] OMG korg littlebits magnetic synth is open-source on github

[Jake]

i was totally impressed the other night at danceJS when i saw the Korg 
Littlebits modular analog synth... it's these magnetic modules that make 
up an analog synth while you snap them together on the table.

and i left danceJS thinking about how nice it would be if there were an 
open-hardware version of this stuff, something we could make at a circuit 
hacking tuesday with printed circuits and printed plastics.

I thought that we could 3d print a plastic frame for the modules, with the 
elasticity of the plastic serving as the springs for the contacts.  and 
the circuit could be this easily etched pyralux that i have a bunch of.. 
and it's flexible so it can serve as the contacts on the sides of the 
thing.

and then just now i realized that the schematics for all the littlebits 
stuff is published on github!

of course i won't do this project alone, but if you're interested in 
wroking on it let me know.
