Motherboard is a celebration of the diversity and eclecticism of the culture that surrounds technology. Rather than squinting at technology through the lens of gizmos and gadgetry, Motherboard explores the ways it influences and affects music, art, design, film, gaming, sports, issues surrounding the environment, and everything else we find important.

So consider the floor open for group participation. It's simple: Get involved in an existing discussion, post your own related videos, write posts, comment, anything… you're now part of the Motherboard.

In Episode 5 of Sound Builders, we cooked up an Electronic Banquet with renowned sound installation artist Liz Phillips. Liz has created dozens of amazing interactive sound and multimedia installations that have been displayed in underground spots like the Whitney Museum of American Art and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. She once tuned 110 pounds of spaghetti on a single table.

At her Brooklyn lab-kitchen, Liz tells us about her approach before creating a cacophonous environment out of a gourmet meal with the help of TV chef Sam Mason. And it sounds as delicious as it sounds.

_See more of Liz’s projects at her website and watch our other Sound Builders episodes. To submit your own instrument idea and win $1000, visit www.motherboard.tv/contest. _
