GIFT CERTIFICATES

————————————————————————————————-

Dear Friends,

Sometimes all a person really wants for their birthday/Christmas/graduation/anniversary/random Wednesday is a lesson in how to solder. Or program an Arduino. Or sew their own pants. In years past, this might have meant they got a scented candle or something instead, and had a terrible birthday. Well friends, we are tired of you having to thank people for smelly crap, so starting now you can buy Machine Project Gift Certificates instead!

You determine the amount, pay for it online via the link below, and we’ll send you a gift certificate in that amount good towards any classes, books, or beer we might have available for purchase. Or notate it as a membership or donation for a fully tax deductible present.

(If you’ve received a Machine Project gift certificate and would like to redeem it for some of the items below, email us at machine@machineproject.com and let us know.)

Fol Chen’s Untitled (Wiener Werkstätte, Textile Length) CD

Fol Chen make the connection between pattern and song — with their mutual reliance on repetition and texture — explicit in this aural interpretation of a Wiener Werkstatte textile. The Viennese collective’s handcrafted ethos is reflected sonically through the use of handmade instruments, while their commitment to elite design production is illustrated with an original watercolor artwork for each CD cover. Edition of 100 created for A Machine Project Field Guide to LACMA, $20.
