Electronics are not tactile
in the same sense as clay
or oil paint. There is little
fluidity in placing
components on a
breadboard. However,
there is still an element of
experimentation, and
something of the unknown
that can always be
discovered. Unlike other
kinds of media, there are
also conventions
concerning electronics,
specific health and safety
issues, and a body of good
practice that it would be
rather foolish to ignore.
