How to Explore the Circuit Board with Alligator Clips When Circuit Bending

AMANDA CLAIRE: All right, so remember when you decide to embark in a circuit bending project, you really can't plan what you're going to do. You can't really decide "Oh, I'm going to find the bend that changes the pitch or I'm going to find the bend that causes a looping behavior?" You really have to just kinda get lucky and stumble upon it. So, here we've got the circuit board exposed, and so what we want to do is start exploring the circuit, and one way to do that is to just take your alligator clips and clip it onto some contact somewhere, so just find one that you can put your little miniature alligator clips on. I'm going to try this one here. Why not? Okay. And then with one hand, you want to kind of press buttons or whatever you have to make the, you know, device makes sound and while it's making you take the other end of the alligator and touch it to the other parts from the circuit board and wait to hear interesting behavior.
