Learn basic microphone wiring, tips on how to work with sound technicians, confidence builders, and more. 7-9pm, price TBD. Center for Sex and Culture, 1349 Mission, SF. www.sexandculture.org

“Circuit Hacking Mondays” Duh you want to make your own handheld game console or a device that can turn off the TV at the bar – learn how at this weekly meeting at tech center Noisebridge. Totally free except for the cost of materials for whatever kit you fix your DIY dreams upon. 7:30-10pm, free. Noisebridge, 2169 Mission, SF. www.noisebridge.net

Hair Movie Night Screenings of movies with iconic hair styles inside a hair salon, the perfect place to fixate on such things. Past screenings have included Edward Scissorhands – what will grace the screen tonight? 7-9:30pm, free. Morphic Salon, 660 Market, SF. www.morphicbeauty.com

Off the Grid In the new year, leave yourself room to be flexible. You can begin with lunch, and you can lunch with Off the Grid.

Vietnamese tacos, pork belly burger, or savory cricket snacks? Practice openness in 2014. 11am-2pm. Front and Vallejo, SF. www.offthegridsf.com
