+
+Make your own mini band! 
+You and your friends can form your own finger-sized band and rock out using Raspberry Pi and Arduino. 
+Learn how to build circuits with sensors and outputs and write a simple programme to control your instruments.
+
+## Instructions
+
+The instructions are in the [writeup directory](https://github.com/NeilNjae/miniband/tree/master/writeup); you'll probably want the [instructions PDF](https://github.com/NeilNjae/miniband/tree/master/writeup/miniband.pdf). Code samples are in the [release directory](https://github.com/NeilNjae/miniband/tree/master/release).
+
+## You will make:
+
+* A guitar
+* A set of drums
+* A pair of maracas
+
+## You will need:
+
+* 1 x Raspberry Pi (plus monitor and power supply)
+* 1 x Arduino Uno boards (with USB cables)
+* 1 x strip potentiometer
+* 2 x tilt sensors
+* 4 x piezo buzzers (the type in greetings cards, easy to get from Maplin)
+* 7 × 10K resistors
+* Bread boards (1 per instrument)
+* Card
+* Sugru (or some other modelling material)
+* Electrical tape
+* Plastic drinking straw
+* Pencil
+* Coloured pens (optional)
+
+
+## Software requirements:
+
+* Scratch
+* IDE developer environment for Arduino
+* Py Serial library
+
+## Drum Kit
