More from Vic

my main question is about what the focus is and how much time there is to
work with.  if it's an hour a day sort of thing then that helps me to better
design what they'll be building and figure on how much of the work i'll need
to do ahead of time for them- making kits for them to assemble- that sort of
thing.

if it's a longer building session more can be done (and designed) by them
and the instrument making thing can take on more dimension- talking about
what makes it work- the effect of materials- amplifying- all that.  if we're
having shorter building sessions sharper focusing can be done.

the raw logistical things help me to form my ideas- how much time/ space/
how many people. if the focus of the week is best on music making and higher
functions there is is likely best to make the instrument making super simple
...that can be done.

if necessary, i think we could have instruments built and ready to use after
a minimum of 2 or 3 hours of assembly.
how long do they build/ explore and adjust/ compose on/ teach the
instruments?
who's in the room?  how many students/ teachers?
