In this 3 hour workshop we will build a Two_Comparator_Effect video instrument up from a kit. This is a posterization effect that takes a composite video signal and turns it into a greyscale stencil (demo below!). It has two controls to affect the signal in real time and can be used with other composite video signals to build up more complex imagery.

No prior soldering experience is required and beginners are welcome!
