Pete holding the first AirHarp Lira prototype

Hey folks, Pete here! If you've heard those words -- or some variant thereof -- you've probably seen some of my YouTube videos, and followed that ubiquitous URL back here. Or maybe you saw me on "Ask an Engineer" with Limor "Ladyada" Fried. Whatever brought you here, welcome!

I would define myself as a perpetual student who loves to learn and create. I hope you enjoy perusing my collection of original music and DIY projects. Most of it is provided free of charge. All I ask is that you exercise due caution if you attempt to replicate any of my more dangerous projects, and of course don't blame me if anything goes wrong. I think that's fair.
