Theremin Antenna Pattern Tuning
Building and calibrating theremins with custom antenna geometries, optimizing the capacitive sensing field for playing characteristics. Combines RF proximity sensing theory from ham radio with the ear training and pitch control from choral singing, using electronics skills to modify oscillator circuits and antenna configurations for different musical responses.
