    This Radio Magic project is not very complex but it covers several different topics, from mechanical implementation to the creation of an analogue synthesizer based on the popular NE555 timer integrated circuit (IC). Over the next few issues we also see how it is possible to integrate physical computing — using some Arduino boards — with a simple internet of things (IoT) application controlling the device from the web.
