The stupidity of the dog barking circuit kits, paired with a generally patriarchal electronics culture, has so far made electronics a largely non-female pursuit even as other areas like fashion and fabric crafts moves further towards the customised and the self-made. In fact the process of crafting fabrics is remarkably similar to the building of circuits. Like other forms of crafts, making your own technology can be seen as a sculptural process of allowing objects to be formed in your hands and as such it is an almost primal process of discovery and recognition. As an object slowly takes form on the table in front of us, we can begin to develop intuitions about its capabilities and behaviour.
