Add an eventFrom Faraday to Fender: the Physics of the Electric Guitar. [Bakerloo]
A session at BarCamp London 8
The electric guitar provides a great demonstration of how basic physical principals, such as simple harmonic motion and electromagnetism, can be applied to create an instrument of enduring appeal and expressiveness. In this talk, I explain some of the physical principles behind electric guitars - how they work, why they work, and why the sound the way they do.
