An event to celebrate crafts, engineering, science projects, etc. For and by all ages.All of these “makers” come to Maker Faire to show what they have made and to share what they have learned. Maker Faire is primarily designed to be forward-looking, showcasing makers who are exploring new forms and new technologies.
one of the bands i had the pleasure of touring with this last month was Grave Maker. I just finished this design for them. I would like to thank Pushead for the inspiration with... uh... everything.

We were happily ensconced in the GeekDad booth again this year, but with bigger rockets from Tom & Dick's magic workshop... and more advanced composite materials baked into the RocketMavericks Reference Design. (I’ll add notes to the photo details)
Next to us were pre-release versions of a whole new Lego product line with metal structures (for better robots) and the WIRED Editor-in-Chief showing how to make cheap UAVs.
Maker's Mark is a fantastic bourbon. The bottle you see here was hand-dipped in wax, even though it is a single-serving size. This particular bottle was part of a birthday gift. My favorite place to drink a Maker's Mark is approximately 33,000 feet above the earth.

In this week’s art maker class with Natalina, we started with a bit of qi gong, then had a conversation in french about objects around us in our home and garden. We then switched to Arduino programming and learned how to make a servo motor move. She assembled the hardware, reviewed the servo code and updated it to try different speeds for the motor. She keeps getting more fluent in both French and Arduino — two languages she wasn’t very comfortable with before. I think these weekly lessons are helping, and I am really happy with her progress.
We also discussed our next steps for Violet’s Journey, the fairy tale video that we are creating with her art ducks — which we have turned into poetic robots. We reviewed our options for the backgrounds that the ducks will glide in front of, and decided to start by printing one of our photo backgrounds onto a large vinyl banner, then shooting some test scenes against that backdrop, to see if this type of physical compositing with printed scenes will work. We also talked about the need for ’skirts’ to cover the robot bases, and looked at different ways to give Violet rainbow-colored feathers, using illuminated fiber optic strands that just came in from China.
Here’s our Arduino Guide for these classes: bit.ly/arduino-workshop-guide

These are the final decals for the Maker Faire this weekend. Think the metallic cyan ink really set off the tile. Come out and learn how to apply the decals!
I am attending the Houston Mini Maker Faire. Come on out and learn about how I create all the figures I make. I will be demonstrating decaling, pressure casting, and vacuum forming, and many other techniques. Will be discussing adding lights, sound, and movement to your minifigures as well. Want the details?

Strata Mini Maker Faire
Add your rating
6:40pm Thursday, 09/22/2011
Location: Sutton Parlor Foyer
Join us after the Attendee Reception on Thursday, September 22 for the Strata Mini Maker Faire—in partnership with Maker Faire, and on the heels of a successful Maker Faire New York.
Browse and interact with a gallery of sensor-laden Maker projects and discuss how they are relevant to the world of data collection and computation. You’ll be able to network with your peers working at the intersection of the Maker culture and the data revolution, while stopping to play with a variety of robots that will be on display.
Here’s a little preview of the featured Makers & their projects:
Flint Weisser’s works of sculptures and garage science has been featured in galleries across the U.S, Scotland National Museums, and on the Wired:Science, Scientific American, and Discover websites. Flint will be showcasing an array of his projects including: Expansion Cloud Chamber, Electrophorous, Electroscope, Digital spinthariscope, Kelvin (Water Drop) Generator, Spark counter, and 3 devices that measure radiation.
New media artist Balam Soto merges existing and custom, digital technology with artistic concepts and aesthetics to create exploratory works, including interactive art installations, murals, art video and performance. Balam will feature The Body Sound Suit, a bio-gesture capture and trigger system inspired by the arduino drum project. The suit captures human gestures/body movements and translates it into data; this captured data then triggers sound and graphics.
Alisdair Allan, author of Learning iOS Programming, Basic Sensors in iOS, Geolocation iOS, iOS and Sensor Networks and Augmented Reality in iOS, will display his Connecting iOS to the Real World exhibit, demonstrating how to connect your iPhone, iPod touch or iPad to the real world. He’ll use the Redpark Serial Cable for iOS and the Arduino, allowing you to make your iOS device part of the Internet of Things.
We’ll have a 3D printer on site working its magic, and students from NYU will be showing off what they’re doing with sensors.
Gabriella Levine is a NYC-based interactive artist and hardware designer who works with a variety of physical mediums and digital technologies to create interactive environments that investigate new ways of representing information. Her Protei Open Source Sailing Drones project features pollution collecting sailing drones, a low-cost open-source oil collecting device that semi-autonomously sails upwind while intercepting oil sheens going downwind. The design of Protei is meant to be hurricane-ready, self-righting, inflatable, unbreakable, cheap and easy to manufacture for immediate response.
Robot Room
Strata Mini Maker Faire’s Robot Room will be dedicated to a special exhibit of robots such as:
Robotic Rover
This Robotic Rover can operate Fully Autonomous, Semi Autonomous and Remote Control. This robot has many sensors and modules such as XBee RF Transceiver, HMB55 digital compass, 3 axis accelerometer, EEprom, two L293 H bridge motor controllers, an ultra sonic Range finder in the front two Sharp Ir range finders left, Right & Center, a Pan and Tilt mount with two servos which moves a wireless camera and 4 PIC Micro Controllers.
Robotic Car
The Robot Room will feature a robot car, which a person can sit and ride in while another drives them via remote control.
Brooklyn Robot Foundry
Dave Van Esselstyn, an educational technologist with a love for robotics, will be representing Brooklyn Robot Foundry – a group of educators and technologists dedicated to helping Brooklyn children and families optimize their hands-on, technology-based learning experience. This interactive mini robots and robot rebuilds exhibit will have robots talking(!) about the Brooklyn Robot Foundry and their goal of creating environments where kids and families can come together to build things.
Windows Movie Maker is a movie editing software that is free from Microsoft. It is available on most PCs but can also be downloaded.
Today marks the final day of the Unknown Maker project. This project started in spring 2021 and it started all with a stack of tea towels that were around 100 years old. All the items in the book were found in thrift stores, on fleamarkets or gifted to me. There are examples of crochet, knitting, lace, tatting and embroidery.
All the items in the photographs are hidden in pockets. These trimmings are hidden in the pocket with the green embroidered blocks.
There is a video of the book but it is too long to put on Flickr. Here is the link: www.youtube.com/watch?v=AEKf2Mfn0dk

Maker Faire is the Greatest Show (and Tell) on Earth—a family-friendly showcase of invention, creativity and resourcefulness, and a celebration of the Maker movement. It’s a place where people show what they are making, and share what they are learning.
Makers range from tech enthusiasts to crafters to homesteaders to scientists to garage tinkerers. They are of all ages and backgrounds. The aim of Maker Faire is to entertain, inform, connect and grow this community.
The original Maker Faire was held in San Mateo, CA and in 2013 celebrated its eighth annual Bay Area event with some 900 makers and 120,000 people in attendance. World Maker Faire New York, the other flagship event, has grown in four years to 600+ makers and 75,000 attendees. Detroit, Kansas City, Rome, Oslo, Tokyo, Newcastle (UK), and Shenzhen are the home of "featured" 2014 Maker Faires (200+ makers), and almost 100 community-driven, independently organized Mini Maker Faires are now being produced around the United States and the world, including right here in Portland.

"Mackenzie & Moncur Ltd, Edinburgh,London & Glasgow." Three of the four columns retain their service doors while this one has lost its door. A wire can be seen inside. it would be nice to think that the four columns still retain a power supply and with new lanterns and a coat of paint, they could be brought back into use in no time at all.
